Slices
Slices are UI templates that can display rich, dynamic, and interactive content from your app from within the Google Search app and also in other places like the Google Assistant. Slices can help users perform tasks faster by enabling engagement outside of the fullscreen app experience.
Components can display small, customizable search content called slices as part of search results.
Principles
Slices focus on one task, or a set of related tasks, and highlight the most important information. Slices reflect content or features from your app.
