Plenti's content driven component architecture is so cool!

Hi all,

I saw an interesting Svelte Society Youtube video on Dynamic component loading- This Week in Svelte (2023 October 20) - Kit 1.26.0, Svelte 4.2.2, dynamically-loaded components where they discuss and show an implementation using Sveltekit. I immediately thought how elegant and powerful Plenti's implementation of this is because it offers a unique take; using its own style of content driven component architecture.
Particularly when combined with the allLayouts 'magic' prop which allows for the freedom to add/remove/rearrange components and also have complete SSR builds so you still get HTML fallbacks is awesome!

Thanks @jimafisk and the Plenti team! I appreciate your great work 😄

Thanks @jamestagal! Content driven components took a bit of work because Svelte doesn't support SSR'ing dynamic components out of the box, see:

• Top-level await sveltejs/svelte#5501
• Woes with SSR and Promises sveltejs/svelte#3853
• Async/streaming SSR renderer sveltejs/svelte#958

We added the allLayouts magic prop to hack around this limitation and during the build we use global component signatures to rig it all up. Thanks for the kinds words!
