The preview is a local docs simulation (not a running Hedron server). Interactive demos show a “Simulated HTMX” trace when applicable.

Basic use

from hedron import Title
component = Title('Billing · Acme')

Compose under Page for full documents, or return from a fragment route for HTMX swaps.

How it works

Title emits exactly one <title> element. Put it in a Head, or use the simpler title= argument on Page.

This component's core behavior is server-rendered HTML and does not require a browser runtime. The preview is ordinary semantic HTML, so keyboard, form, link, and disclosure behavior comes from the platform.

Constructor and parameters

Title(text=None, *, children=None)
Parameter Type Meaning
text str | None Preferred title text.
children str | None Alternative authoring form when text is omitted.

Composition and backend behavior

Keep Title at the smallest semantic boundary. Fragment routes should return only the replaced region and preserve stable target IDs across success, validation, empty, loading, and error responses.

Title is primarily presentational; keep any mutation on an explicit action or component route.

Accessibility

Use a concise, unique title whose most specific information comes first.

Security

Escaping and SafeUrl / TrustedHtml are framework concerns; authorization and data exposure remain application code. Redact secrets before rendering.

Common mistakes

  • This is document metadata, not a visible heading. Pair it with a page Heading(level=1).
  • Do not copy docs-preview JavaScript into an application server.

Testing

from hedron import RenderMode, render

result = render(component, mode=RenderMode.FRAGMENT)
assert result.html
assert not result.diagnostics
