+
+# Build Constants
+
+Build Constants in Stencil allow you to run specific code only when Stencil is running in development mode. This code is stripped from your bundles when doing a production build, therefore keeping your bundles as small as possible.
+
+### Using Build Constants
+
+Lets dive in and look at an example of how to use our build constants:
+
+```tsx
+import { Component, Build } from '@stencil/core';
+
+@Component({
+  tag: 'stencil-app',
+  styleUrl: 'stencil-app.scss'
+})
+export class StencilApp {
+
+  componentDidLoad() {
+    if (Build.isDev) {
+      console.log('im in dev mode');
+    } else {
+      console.log('im running in production');
+    }
+
+    if (Build.isBrowser) {
+      console.log('im in the browser');
+    } else {
+      console.log('im in prerendering (server)');
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+As you can see from this example, we just need to import `Build` from `@stencil/core` and then we can use the `isDev` constant to detect when we are running in dev mode or production mode.
+
+### Use Cases
+
+Some use cases we have come up with are:
+
+- Diagnostics code that runs in dev to make sure logic is working like you would expect
+- `console.log()`'s that may be useful for debugging in dev mode but that you don't want to ship
+- Disabling auth checks when in dev mode

+
+# Component API
+
+The whole API provided by stencil can be condensed in a set of decorators, lifecycles hooks and rendering methods.
+
+
+## Decorators
+
+Decorators are a pure compiler-time construction used by stencil to collect all the metadata about a component, the properties, attributes and methods it might expose, the events it might emit or even the associated stylesheets.
+Once all the metadata has been collected, all the decorators are removed from the output, so they don't incur any runtime overhead.
+
+- [@Component()](./component.md) declares a new web component
+- [@Prop()](./properties.md#the-prop-decorator-prop) declares an exposed property/attribute
+- [@State()](./state.md#the-state-decorator-state) declares an internal state of the component
+- [@Watch()](./reactive-data.md#the-watch-decorator-watch) declares a hook that runs when a property or state changes
+- [@Element()](./host-element.md#element-decorator) declares a reference to the host element
+- [@Method()](./methods.md) declares an exposed public method
+- [@Event()](./events.md#event-decorator) declares a DOM event the component might emit
+- [@Listen()](./events.md#listen-decorator) listens for DOM events
+
+
+## Lifecycle hooks
+
+- [connectedCallback()](./component-lifecycle.md#connectedcallback)
+- [disconnectedCallback()](./component-lifecycle.md#disconnectedcallback)
+- [componentWillLoad()](./component-lifecycle.md#componentwillload)
+- [componentDidLoad()](./component-lifecycle.md#componentdidload)
+- [componentShouldUpdate(newValue, oldValue, propName): boolean](./component-lifecycle.md#componentshouldupdate)
+- [componentWillRender()](./component-lifecycle.md#componentwillrender)
+- [componentDidRender()](./component-lifecycle.md#componentdidrender)
+- [componentWillUpdate()](./component-lifecycle.md#componentwillupdate)
+- [componentDidUpdate()](./component-lifecycle.md#componentdidupdate)
+- **[render()](./templating-and-jsx.md)**
+
+## componentOnReady()
+
+This isn't a true "lifecycle" method that would be declared on the component class definition, but instead is a utility method that
+can be used by an implementation consuming your Stencil component to detect when a component has finished its first render cycle.
+
+This method returns a promise which resolves after `componentDidRender()` on the _first_ render cycle.
+
+:::note
+`componentOnReady()` only resolves once per component lifetime. If you need to hook into subsequent render cycle, use
+`componentDidRender()` or `componentDidUpdate()`.
+:::
+
+Executing code after `componentOnReady()` resolves could look something like this:
+
+```ts
+// Get a reference to the element
+const el = document.querySelector('my-component');
+
+el.componentOnReady().then(() => {
+  // Place any code in here you want to execute when the component is ready
+  console.log('my-component is ready');
+});
+```
+
+The availability of `componentOnReady()` depends on the component's compiled output type. This method is only available for lazy-loaded
+distribution types ([`dist`](../output-targets/dist.md) and [`www`](../output-targets/www.md)) and, as such, is not available for
+[`dist-custom-elements`](../output-targets/custom-elements.md) output. If you want to simulate the behavior of `componentOnReady()` for non-lazy builds,
+you can implement a helper method to wrap the functionality similar to what the Ionic Framework does [here](https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic-framework/blob/main/core/src/utils/helpers.ts#L60-L79).
+
+## The `appload` event
+
+In addition to component-specific lifecycle hooks, a special event called `appload` will be emitted when the app and all of its child components have finished loading. You can listen for it on the `window` object.
+
+If you have multiple apps on the same page, you can determine which app emitted the event by checking `event.detail.namespace`. This will be the value of the [namespace config option](../config/01-overview.md#namespace) you've set in your Stencil config.
+
+```tsx
+window.addEventListener('appload', (event) => {
+  console.log(event.detail.namespace);
+});
+```
+
+## Other
+
+The following primitives can be imported from the `@stencil/core` package and used within the lifecycle of a component:
+
+- [**Host**](./host-element.md): `<Host>`, is a functional component that can be used at the root of the render function to set attributes and event listeners to the host element itself. Refer to the [Host Element](./host-element.md) page for usage info.
+
+- **Fragment**: `<Fragment>`, often used via `<>...</>` syntax, lets you group elements without a wrapper node.
+
+  To use this feature, ensure that the following TypeScript compiler options are set:
+  - [`jsxFragmentFactory` is set](https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#jsxFragmentFactory) to "Fragment"
+  - [`jsxFactory` is set](https://www.typescriptlang.org/tsconfig#jsxFactory) to "h"
+
+  __Type:__ `FunctionalComponent`<br />
+  __Example:__
+  ```tsx
+  import { Component, Fragment, h } from '@stencil/core'
+  @Component({
+    tag: 'cmp-fragment',
+  })
+  export class CmpFragment {
+    render() {
+      return (
+        <>
+          <div>...</div>
+          <div>...</div>
+          <div>...</div>
+        </>
+      );
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+- [**h()**](./templating-and-jsx.md): It's used within the `render()` to turn the JSX into Virtual DOM elements.
+
+- [**readTask()**](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/rendering/avoid-large-complex-layouts-and-layout-thrashing): Schedules a DOM-read task. The provided callback will be executed in the best moment to perform DOM reads without causing layout thrashing.
+
+  __Type:__ `(task: Function) => void`
+
+- [**writeTask()**](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/rendering/avoid-large-complex-layouts-and-layout-thrashing): Schedules a DOM-write task. The provided callback will be executed in the best moment to perform DOM mutations without causing layout thrashing.
+
+  __Type:__ `(task: Function) => void`
+
+- **forceUpdate()**: Schedules a new render of the given instance or element even if no state changed. Notice `forceUpdate()` is not synchronous and might perform the DOM render in the next frame.
+
+  __Type:__ `(ref: HTMLElement) => void`<br />
+  __Example:__
+  ```ts
+  import { forceUpdate } from '@stencil/core'
+
+  // inside a class component function
+  forceUpdate(this);
+  ```
+
+- **getAssetPath()**: Gets the path to local assets. Refer to the [Assets](../guides/assets.md#getassetpath) page for usage info.
+
+  __Type:__ `(path: string) => string`<br />
+  __Example:__
+  ```tsx
+  import { Component, Prop, getAssetPath, h } from '@stencil/core'
+  @Component({
+    tag: 'cmp-asset',
+  })
+  export class CmpAsset {
+    @Prop() icon: string;
+
+    render() {
+      return (
+        <img src={getAssetPath(`assets/icons/${this.icon}.png`)} />
+      );
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+- **setAssetPath()**: Sets the path for Stencil to resolve local assets. Refer to the [Assets](../guides/assets.md#setassetpath) page for usage info.
+
+  __Type:__ `(path: string) => string`<br />
+  __Example:__
+  ```ts
+  import { setAssetPath } from '@stencil/core';
+  setAssetPath(`{window.location.origin}/`);
+  ```
+
+- **setMode()**: Sets the style mode of a component. Refer to the [Styling](./styling.md#style-modes) page for usage info.
+
+  __Type:__ `(ref: HTMLElement) => string`<br />
+  __Example:__
+  ```ts
+  import { setMode } from '@stencil/core'
+
+  // set mode based on a property
+  setMode((el) => el.getAttribute('mode'));
+  ```
+
+- **getMode()**: Get the current style mode of your application. Refer to the [Styling](./styling.md#style-modes) page for usage info.
+
+  __Type:__ `(ref: HTMLElement) => string`<br />
+  __Example:__
+  ```ts
+  import { getMode } from '@stencil/core'
+
+  getMode(this);
+  ```
+
+- **getElement()**: Retrieve a Stencil element for a given reference.
+
+  __Type:__ `(ref: getElement) => string`<br />
+  __Example:__
+  ```ts
+  import { getElement } from '@stencil/core'
+
+  const stencilComponent = getElement(document.querySelector('my-cmp'))
+  if (stencilComponent) {
+    stencilComponent.componentOnReady().then(() => { ... })
+  }
+  ```
