Overview

Layout component not only helps in structuring the user interface but also allows you to embed one layout within another. This feature, known as a layout within a layout, facilitates more complex and organized designs by enabling the nesting of layouts.

For example, In a application for a customer relationship management (CRM) system, you might have a main layout for displaying customer profiles. Within this main layout, you can embed additional layouts for sections like contact details, activity history, and related opportunities. By using nested layouts, you ensure that each section is well-organized and that data is dynamically passed between layouts, providing a cohesive user experience.
