Page Types improvements

This week, we're adding 2 cool features to our new page types.
We're on our way to let users have a seamless and enjoyable experience to create the pages of their websites with Prismic. In order to do so, following our recent research we wanted to remove 2 important friction points. First, the actual creation of the page component connected to Prismic. Second, the understanding of the Slice Zone and the experience of creating and adding a first Slice to a page type.

So, we added 2 important improvements to the page type feature :

• Create Slices from the Slice Zone. Users can now create Slices directly from the Slice Zone and automatically add newly created Slices to it.

• Page Component Code Snippet. Users can now copy a code snippet and use it as a boilerplate for their page component, making it easier to get started with building both single and repeatable pages.

Bug Fixes

• We resolved an issue where the dropdown on the Slice Creation Modal was showing an empty area. The dropdown now properly shows all Slices libraries contained in the Slices folder.
