Sometimes, the pieces of the puzzle go missing, and you find yourself with a blank spot. Imagine that you could fill that empty spot with a piece that you crafted yourself – not the original one that came with the puzzle box. That's a rough analogy for what a Vue slot is.
Vue slots are like open spaces in your component that other components can fill with text, HTML elements, or other Vue components. You can declare where the slot will be and how it will behave in your component.
With this technique, you can create a component and, when needed, customize it without any effort at all.
