Great question! A “slug” is a short, URL‑friendly, human‑readable identifier derived from a longer name or title. - What it looks like: typically lowercase, spaces replaced with hyphens, punctuation removed - Why it’s used: makes URLs and identifiers readable, stable, and easy to share (and SEO‑friendly) - How it’s made: “My First Flow!” → “my-first-flow”; “Data Ingest 2025/10” → “data-ingest-2025-10” - Where you’ll see it: in website URLs, API endpoints, and UI links. In Prefect, you may see slugified names in UI URLs (e.g., for workspaces or deployments) to keep links clean and consistent. Would you like this explained in the context of Prefect specifically, or just general web/dev usage?
