A slot is an area in a web page where you can insert dynamic content. It can be either a passive placeholder that waits for the contents of a scenario (a “passive” slot) or a container that contains content and is triggered by a scenario (an active slot). Slots work in tandem with scenarios to deliver content to pages, and they can be used along with other dynamic elements such as v-if and v-ifuploaded to add conditionality to them.

A slot in an airplane is an authorization for a plane to take off or land at a specific time, used by the FAA and other air traffic control systems to prevent massive delays that result from too many flights trying to take off or land at once. Similarly, in computer programming, a slot is a variable-size memory location that can store data.
