Application settings
The name, addresses, meta and appearance of this project. Saved settings are read at runtime — a change shows on the next page load, with no rebuild.
Parallel routing
Parallel routing
How a page of this project is assembled. In the standard mode a page is one column of content. In the parallel mode the screen is divided into areas that are rendered independently — a slow one does not hold up the rest.
Add one slot at a time
Designing an application around parallel routing takes a deep understanding of the user's path: the screen is split into areas, and each one lives its own life. Grow the project by adding no more than one slot at a time — until you understand how to use it in your own product.
Available in an upcoming update
Nothing reads this setting yet: parallel routing is not wired into the project's root layout. You can make the choice here, but it cannot be saved — the file would say one thing and the screen another.
Areas
The standard mode uses three areas — header, content, footer. Switch to parallel to choose the rest.
Layout preview
- Header
Always on: without it a page does not assemble.
- Promo screen
A full-width band above everything — for an offer or an announcement.
- Left column
A side column: navigation, filters, a menu of the section.
- Right column
A side column: what accompanies the content rather than continues it.
- Above the content
A strip directly above the content: a title, a state, a warning.
- Content
- Below the content
A strip directly below the content: what comes next.
- Footer
Always on: without it a page does not assemble.
