Verdict

The XAFVerdict component renders the TL;DR / verdict callout block at the top of a review page. This is the pattern that wins Google's "featured snippet" on "best X for Y" queries — a styled callout with the verdict, who it's for, who should skip it, and a one-line bottom line.

Component

<XAFVerdict />

<XAFVerdict
  verdict="A fantastic keyboard for typists who want mechanical feel without the noise — but gamers should look elsewhere."
  best-for="Writers, programmers, and home-office workers"
  skip-if="You're a competitive gamer who needs <1ms latency"
  bottom-line="Editor's Pick"
  :rating="4.6"
  tone="positive"
/>

When to use

Place <XAFVerdict> at the very top of every review, right under the article disclosure and above the product hero. The block is short enough to scan in 3 seconds — exactly how long you have before a reader bounces.

SEO impact

Verdicts are how review sites win featured snippets. Google often pulls the first paragraph after the article title as the snippet. A clear, declarative verdict with "best for" / "skip if" callouts is structured exactly the way Google wants.

For maximum SERP impact, also call useProductSchema() with a strong reviewBody that mirrors your verdict text.
