I'm doing some research on modular Lightning Web Component. The idea is to have developers create LWC and admins can drag/drop to configure components.

With the standard Tabs/Accordion component (Shown below), it allows child components to be configured dynamically. Is there a way we can implement the same in LWC?

According to what I found so far it seems not possible in LWC - The workaround is somehow around using <slot> but that's still coding task.

  • Unless I'm misunderstanding, it seems like you're trying to recreate what is already in App Builder (which you tagged). Perhaps I'm just not understanding the question?

    @pchittum he probably means, if he added a component with slot in app-builder, he should be able to add another component in that parent component from app builder. Like the way we can add tab component and in tab component add our custom component

  • @PranayJaiswal Yes I wanted to confirm if we can ever do that. The App Builder is Page -> Add Component and what I'm wondering is Component - Add Component.

It seems it is still not possible with either LWC or Aura. There is an Idea present for this you can upvote it.

    Thanks - After this post I did more research on Custom Page Template (Essentially an Aura Component accepting Aura.Component[]), but that can only be used at Lightning Page level.

  • As someone mentioned in that IdeaExchange link, it IS possible to do this in LWR sites, but still not in Lightning Experience. See developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.exp_cloud_lwr.meta/…
