Problem Statement
What do @ prefixed folders like @team and @analytics represent in App Router?
Explanation
Folders prefixed with @ define parallel routes called slots that can render simultaneously in the same layout as separate named children props, enabling complex UI patterns like dashboards with multiple independent sections. A layout can receive multiple slot props like children, team, and analytics and render them in different positions, each with their own loading and error states that are isolated from others. Parallel routes enable conditionally rendering slots based on state, independently loading different sections, and creating modals or split views by intercepting routes into slots.
