 ## Key Concepts
 
-**Node tree** -- All renderable units implement `Node`, a single-method interface: `Render(ctx *Context) string`. The library composes nodes into trees using `El()` for elements, `Text()` for translated text, and control-flow constructors (`If`, `Unless`, `Each`, `Switch`, `Entitled`), plus accessibility helpers such as `AriaLabel()`, `AriaControls()`, `AriaCurrent()`, `AriaBusy()`, `AriaHidden()`, `AriaDisabled()`, and `TabIndex()`.

 **HLCRF Layout** -- A five-slot compositor that maps to semantic HTML: `<header>` (H), `<aside>` (L/R), `<main>` (C), `<footer>` (F). The variant string controls which slots render: `"HLCRF"` for all five, `"HCF"` for three, `"C"` for content only. Layouts nest: placing a `Layout` inside another layout's slot produces hierarchical `data-block` paths like `L-0-C-0`.
