Using Slides template as a pipeline?

[ahuang11]

I know there's already a pipeline module that allows for complex, non-linear flow.

However, I really like the minimalistic feel of pn.template.SlidesTemplate and I was wondering if it can be utilized as a simple linear flow.

Specifically, I'd like to see if there's any way to disable the navigate-right controls arrow until the form displayed on the slide is complete.

I'm thinking of a param to enable/disable the controls and have the user do form validation manually.

I see that there's this HTML class:

<button class="navigate-right enabled fragmented highlight" aria-label="next slide"><div class="controls-arrow"></div></button>

If I change it to :

<button class="navigate-right disabled fragmented highlight" aria-label="next slide"><div class="controls-arrow"></div></button>

The right arrow disappears:

Maybe this can be achieved by using slides visibility: https://revealjs.com/slide-visibility/

Similar to adding tags=["fragment"], maybe tags=["hidden"]

I suppose we cannot dynamically add slides to the template either once served, but it's possible to first put placeholders.

I like the idea of using Slides for simple, linear workflows. Could slides be added dynamically if native templates were composed of Panel components, as mentioned here?

I don't think this could be converted into native Panel; maybe JSComponent?

How would this relate to the Pipeline module? Could a slides flow be connected to / be an element in a pipeline module flow?
