    Sure this is possible. By default classes used in data-sly-use will be adapted from request or resource.

      <div data-sly-use.x="a.b.c">

      ${x.yourProperty}

      </div>

        A function is returning me an object which is of type "Resource", i want to cast it to my model class.

        like we do in java : Model model=resource.adaptTo(Model.class);

        Something similar to this.

        Note that currently the page-resource is used for adapting.

        I raised this improvement [SLING-6504] Use-api to support more flexible way to adapt from different objects - ASF JIRA

          Hi Feike,

          I am a bit confused with this.

          Can you provide me a snippet only instead of JIRA issue?

          I gave you the snippet already, right?

          The JIRA is not yet released.
