# Storage Layout

## EVM Storage Fundamentals

Each storage slot is 32 bytes (256 bits). State variables are assigned slots sequentially starting at slot 0. Multiple variables smaller than 32 bytes are packed into a single slot when possible.

```solidity
// Slot 0: addr (20 bytes) + isActive (1 byte) + role (1 byte) = 22 bytes — fits one slot
// Slot 1: balance (32 bytes) — full slot
// Slot 2: lastUpdate (8 bytes) — new slot (won't pack with previous full slot)
contract Packed {
    address addr;       // 20 bytes  | slot 0
    bool isActive;      // 1 byte    | slot 0
    uint8 role;         // 1 byte    | slot 0
