What is Slice Machine?

Slice Machine, introduced by Prismic in 2020, has become an essential tool for developers by streamlining the creation, editing, and publishing of slices and page types within a local development environment, eliminating the need for browser-based UI interactions. This tool allows developers to configure, test, and push slices to the Prismic Page Builder more efficiently, resulting in significant reductions in Time To Live (TTL) for website projects, reportedly up to 65%. By applying version control akin to Git, Slice Machine enables easy rollback of content model changes, enhancing flexibility and reliability. As projects grow in complexity, the time savings and efficiency gains from using Slice Machine also increase, allowing teams to focus on new projects and features to boost revenue and lead generation. Users and agencies working with Slice Machine have noted its ability to expedite website launches and improve productivity, underscoring its value in the development process.
