Lightning Flow in Spring '18: Go with the Flow like never before! ⚡️ 

Supercharge your Flows in Spring '18 by embedding Lightning Components inside your Flow to leverage the best of Lightning Experience. Here's a short summary of what's new and generally available:

1. Use Lightning Components inside your Flow Screens. Any Lightning Component that implements this interface: lightning:availableForFlowScreens can be added to a Flow Screen
2. We provide a File Upload component out of the box. Global (Base) Lightning Components can be wrapped in a custom component implementing the FlowScreen interface to add to the list of UI options in your Flow. My personal favorite is using lightning:progressIndicator (visual indication on the progress of a particular process). 
3. Pass variables out of the Lightning Component to use in decisions and assignments in your Flow
4. Embed your Flow into Lightning Page via Lightning App Builder. Or Community Pages via Community Builder or onto Record Action lists via Object Specific Actions.
