Thank you @catch for filing[#3462219]. I'll try to prioritize a spike on this sometime soon

5️⃣ Wins - what wins have you had since the last meeting? Share your successes!

Created demo design system d.o project (with starting issues) and slack channel (will advertise next week probably) and have been working with my team on a deep dive of SDC :tada: Fun stuff!

6️⃣ Weekly updates - What have you been working on? What’s up next? Need assistance with anything? Any blockers?

Kristen Pol (she/her)

Ah... that probably should have been here... no blockers (Lauri just answered the SDC prop vs slot architecture question so we are good to keep moving :tada: )https://drupal.slack.com/archives/C072JMEPUS1/p1721330929232109?thread_t...

The basic foundation for the UI is starting to take shape. Here's two prototypes that were built recently:Insert components panel: https://www.figma.com/proto/hOjDvI5yWMPdyugjpNuzW4/Experience-Builder?page-id=102%3[…]g=fixed&starting-point-node-id=698%3A1486&show-proto-sidebar=1Edit component props panel: https://www.figma.com/proto/hOjDvI5yWMPdyugjpNuzW4/Experience-Builder?page-id=833%3[…]-zoom&content-scaling=fixed&starting-point-node-id=1156%3A4635These are at a 60% mark now so still some more way to finesse these but it gives an idea of what's coming :sunglasses:Next up is diving into integrating developer created components. I'm working with @Rachel Hart and her colleagues to research and design that: https://docs.google.com/document/d/12H5Fjo4PTmux-n8brygBRIQnpWUviRkPmvSM...'m also working with Acquia UX to define navigation points between existing Drupal UIs and the Experience Builder.

7️⃣ From @Kristen Pol (she/her) earlier in the channel “How do we install experience_builder for testing? I don’t see a dev release”

Kristen Pol (she/her)	I did grab with git clone and enabled but the "xb" poc wasn't loading (404s)
rkoller	with the steps in the following comment on the “ddev support for cypress tests” issue i was able to install experience builder for testing a few days ago:#3458369: DDEV support for Cypress tests#comment-15670970
Kristen Pol (she/her)	Thanks @rkoller :+1:

8️⃣From @Kristen Pol (she/her) Best practices for SDC architecture with XB

Kristen Pol (she/her)	I'll link to the whole thread first and then put a TLDR

Kristen Pol (she/her)	From Laurihttps://drupal.slack.com/archives/C072JMEPUS1/p1721329088842689?thread_t...
Kristen Pol (she/her)	Followup on that...If you have a title or subtitle that allows simple markup like bold/italic, should it be a prop or slot? (edited)
lauriii	I assume you'd want a RTE for that? It should probably still be a prop. We don't have a way to represent that in the SDC schema yet but if you can add a comment in the component YAML that you'd want to use RTE for that prop, we can add the right syntax there later once we know what that is.
lauriii	@wimleers (he/him) FYI ^
Kristen Pol (she/her)	Sounds good, thanks :pray:
