Amazing! Custom css just solved a bunch of our problems!

@yang Regarding the Global Context Components, does that mean once registered as a GCC we don’t need to register them per project and the componenents will be available in all our projects?

7

So much new stuff to learn and to experiment a lot of new ideas :heart: :rocket:

8

@costly_lungfish For now the GCC settings are still local to a single project (but apply to all pages/components) - there isn’t a way yet to share that across projects

I was just going to create a code components for carousel using slick… It’s available in store by now :100:

10

@zonal_mammal Great minds! :joy:

11

We were discussing this very afternoon about custom CSS… and we received your newsletter tonight announcing it: awesome! :star-struck:

12

This is great!

looking at your sanity example i see you are using some plasmic components that I am not aware of (DataProvider, useSelector) and I can’t find any documentation on these. So far i’ve been using the plasmic-next-loader package, which doesn’t even have them…can you point me in the right direction to understand how to use them?

@yang Hi, how can i get early access to the cms? This is THE missing feature my company may have waited for

Hi @organic_ocelot,
The Carousel component is in the Component Store which is under the Insert Menu ( shortcut Q ).
