What Is the Difference Between Slots and Scoped Slots in VUE JS?

In short, there is a big difference between slots and scoped slots in Vue. Slots are used for data binding, while scoped slots are used for event handling.

Let’s take a closer look.

Data Binding with Slots

Slots can be used to bind data to components. To do this, you use the bound property on the slot:

Username: {{ username }}

This will bind the username property to the component instance. This means that any changes to the username property will be reflected in the component’s output.

Saving Changes with Slot Bound Data

Sometimes you might want to save changes to a slot’s data without triggering a re-render. You can do this by using the watch property on the slot:

Username: {{ username }}

.

Now, when you click the Save Profile button, Vue will watch the username slot and will save any changes that are made to it. This ensures that your changes are automatically persisted across re- renders.
