# Smarter Slice Spacing in Prismic

**[Prismic](https://daily.dev/sources/Prismic)** · 6 min read · 6 upvotes · 2 comments

## Summary

Three techniques for making Prismic slices respond intelligently to their surroundings: establishing a shared spacing baseline with a reusable Bounded component, auto-collapsing doubled gaps between adjacent slices with the same background using CSS sibling selectors, and reading slice data (index and neighbors) via SliceZone props to conditionally adjust padding. Code examples use React and Tailwind CSS but the patterns are framework-agnostic.
