Just a thought - not necessarily a good one - if I created a custom element <site-layout> and use it to insert blocks of content into specific <slot> elements it could create for quite lean pages - but I guess it would mean using shadow dom too…
I wonder if this something @enhance_dev makes better - I need to take a look again.
@scrwd That's definitely where Enhance or WebC would shine (IIRC, Marko too, probably Astro as well).
You'd "just" be using the custom element syntax for server-side templating though, not a "true" web component, so you could just as well use other server-side templating languages.
@tbroyer I'm not sure if Astro lets you have more than one slot tho? That's the key bit because a complicated layout can be used quite simply with multiple slots. I know I could use grid and subgrid to sort of create "slots" (similar to the link @macdonst shared - although using multiple slots it just assigns into a CSS grid area in the example) but that only works for some layouts - the more you have nested HTML the harder it is to make it work even with subgrid support.
