Yes, as long as you can walk it, you can turf it! If the slop gets steep, you will need to watch out for the infills as it tends to be washed away easily, so you might not to want to put much of infills for such installations: by doing the installations without infills, you will need to minimize the seams and try to secure the edges as tight as possible by nailing firmly on the edge boards. As far as drainage, water will simply dispensed sideways.

My front yard has a mild slope to it, the installation was done perfectly!
Great way you put it: you can walk it, you can turf it!
I can see some minor sloped lawns making sense, not sure what the point to have artificial grass installed on a steep slope.
I have a very mild slope, I think the installer might even created a bit of intentionally to better the drainage system.
I have seen the slope with turf all the time.
Turf installations on a slope are being done all the time, but takes pros to do them right.
My yard has a 25 degree slope to it, the installation was done just fine.
I don't think the turf installation on a slope would be a problem at all.
I haven't come across installations that can't be done due to the slopes.
We have customers installing turf vertically on the wall: like hanging carpet. Of course that is to the extreme, not necessarily apply to your concerns here. Just a comment.
Mine has a small slope to it, works fine.
I have seen some artificial turf installations on a slope in my community, and I live in San Diego.
Good to know.
