+/**
+ * DateGate — conditionally render content based on build-time date.
+ *
+ * Defines a date window via `after` and/or `before` props. At build time,
+ * the component determines which time period "now" falls into and renders
+ * exactly one of three named slots: "before", "during", or "after".
+ *
+ * Any omitted slot simply renders nothing — use 2 slots for a simple
+ * on/off gate or all 3 for a full before/during/after split.
+ *
+ * Date strings are parsed as UTC midnight when no time portion is given
+ * (e.g. "2026-07-14" = 2026-07-14T00:00:00.000Z). For precise time-of-day
+ * gating in a specific timezone, include the offset:
+ *   after="2026-07-14T00:00:00+02:00"   (midnight CEST)
+ *
+ * @example
+ * // 3-state: before CfP / open / closed
+ * <DateGate after="2026-06-01" before="2026-07-01">
+ *   <p slot="before">CfP opens June 1st!</p>
+ *   <a slot="during" href="/cfp">Submit your talk</a>
+ *   <p slot="after">CfP closed. See you in Kraków!</p>
+ * </DateGate>
+ *
+ * @example
+ * // 2-state: teaser → live (omit "after" slot)
+ * <DateGate after="2026-07-14">
+ *   <p slot="before">Tickets coming soon!</p>
+ *   <a slot="during" href="/tickets">Buy Tickets</a>
+ * </DateGate>
