# 08. Parallel Routes (@modal, @analytics) & Conditional Slot Rendering

> Next.js 14+ Notes by Rishabh - Topic 08

---

### 1. Parallel Routes Kya Hain? (Named Slots `@slot` 🎛️)

Parallel routes ek hi layout me **multiple independent pages ko simultaneously render** karne ki capability dete hain:

```
app/
 ├── layout.tsx
 ├── page.tsx
 ├── @analytics/
 │    └── page.tsx
 └── @team/
      └── page.tsx
```

---

### 2. Layout Integration: Slots as Props

```tsx
// app/layout.tsx
export default function DashboardLayout({
    children,
    analytics,
    team
}: {
    children: React.ReactNode;
    analytics: React.ReactNode;
    team: React.ReactNode;
}) {
    return (
        <div className="p-8">
            <main>{children}</main>
            <div className="grid grid-cols-2 gap-6 mt-8">
                <section className="border p-4 rounded">{analytics}</section>
                <section className="border p-4 rounded">{team}</section>
            </div>
        </div>
    );
}
```

---

### 3. `default.tsx` (Handling Unmatched Navigation States 🛡️)

Jab user navigation karta hai aur kisi slot ka specific matching sub-route define na ho:
*   Next.js **`default.tsx`** render karta hai taaki layout freeze na ho.

### 5. Interview Ke 3 Sawal Is Topic Se

1. **Parallel Routes me `default.tsx` kyu mandatory hoti hai?** -> Hard refresh (F5) ya unmatched sub-path navigation par Next.js ko slot ka fallback UI render karne ke liye `default.tsx` chahiye hota hai.
2. **Conditional Slot Rendering ka real-world use case kya hai?** -> Role-based dashboards render karna (jaise Admin login hone par `@admin` slot render karna aur normal user ke liye `@user` slot).
3. **Parallel Routes aur Intercepting Routes ko combine karke kya banaya jata hai?** -> Shareable URL modal windows (jaise Instagram photo preview modal).
