Description: A modal is the Slack app equivalent of an alert box, pop-up, or dialog box. Modals capture and maintain focus within Slack until the user submits or dismisses the modal. This makes them a powerful piece of app functionality for engaging with users. Modals are available for both Bolt apps and Deno Slack SDK apps.
