# `Harlock.Element`
[🔗](https://github.com/thatsme/harlock/blob/v0.2.0/lib/harlock/element.ex#L1)

A node in the view tree returned by an app's `view/1`. Plain struct, no
macros — built via the constructor functions in `Harlock.Elements`
(`text/2`, `vbox/1`, `box/1`, etc.).

You'll see `Harlock.Element.t()` in typespecs but normally won't
construct one directly. Pattern-matching against the struct is fine
if you're writing renderer extensions; the field shapes are stable
on `0.x` releases.

# `t`

```elixir
@type t() :: %Harlock.Element{children: [t()], opts: keyword(), type: type()}
```

# `type`

```elixir
@type type() ::
  :text | :text_input | :vbox | :hbox | :spacer | :box | :overlay | :table
```
