+#### Non-browser HTML rendering
+
+One of the benefits of FAST declarative HTML templates is that the server can be stack agnostic as JavaScript does not need to be interpreted. By default `@microsoft/fast-html` will expect hydratable content and uses comments and datasets for tracking the binding logic. For more information on what that markup should look like, as well as an example of how initial state may be applied, read our [documentation](./RENDERING.md) to understand what markup should be generated for a hydratable experience. For the sake of brevity hydratable markup will be excluded from the README.
+
+#### Using the RenderableFASTElement
+
+The use of `RenderableFASTElement` as a mixin for your custom element will automatically remove the `defer-hydration` attribute signalling for hydration to begin, and if you need to add state before hydration should occur you can make use of the `prepare` method.
+
+Example:
+```typescript
+class MyCustomElement extends FASTElement {
+    private prepare(): Promise<void> {
+        // Get initial state
+    }
+}
+
+RenderableFASTElement(MyCustomElement).defineAsync({
+    name: "my-custom-element",
+    templateOptions: "defer-and-hydrate",
+});
+```
+
+#### Lifecycle Callbacks
+
+FAST HTML provides lifecycle callbacks that allow you to hook into various stages of template processing and element hydration. These callbacks are useful for tracking the rendering lifecycle, gathering analytics, or coordinating complex initialization sequences.
+
+##### Available Callbacks
+
+**Template Lifecycle Callbacks:**
+- `elementDidRegister(name: string)` - Called after the JavaScript class definition has been registered
+- `templateWillUpdate(name: string)` - Called before the template has been evaluated and assigned
+- `templateDidUpdate(name: string)` - Called after the template has been assigned to the definition
+- `elementDidDefine(name: string)` - Called after the custom element has been defined
+
+**Hydration Lifecycle Callbacks:**
+- `elementWillHydrate(name: string)` - Called before an element begins hydration
+- `elementDidHydrate(name: string)` - Called after an element completes hydration
+- `hydrationComplete()` - Called after all elements have completed hydration
+
+##### Configuring Callbacks
+
+Configure lifecycle callbacks using `TemplateElement.config()`:
+
+```typescript
+import { TemplateElement, type HydrationLifecycleCallbacks } from "@microsoft/fast-html";
+
+// You can configure all callbacks at once
+const callbacks: HydrationLifecycleCallbacks = {
+    elementDidRegister(name: string) {
+        console.log(`Element registered: ${name}`);
+    },
+    templateWillUpdate(name: string) {
+        console.log(`Template updating: ${name}`);
+    },
+    templateDidUpdate(name: string) {
+        console.log(`Template updated: ${name}`);
+    },
+    elementDidDefine(name: string) {
+        console.log(`Element defined: ${name}`);
+    },
+    elementWillHydrate(name: string) {
+        console.log(`Element will hydrate: ${name}`);
+    },
+    elementDidHydrate(name: string) {
+        console.log(`Element hydrated: ${name}`);
+    },
+    hydrationComplete() {
+        console.log('All elements hydrated');
+    }
+};
+
+TemplateElement.config(callbacks);
+
+// Or configure only the callbacks you need
+TemplateElement.config({
+    elementDidHydrate(name: string) {
+        console.log(`${name} is ready`);
+    },
+    hydrationComplete() {
+        console.log('Page is interactive');
+    }
+});
+```
+
+##### Lifecycle Order
+
+The lifecycle callbacks occur in the following general sequence:
+
+1. **Registration Phase**: `elementDidRegister` is called when the element class is registered
+2. **Template Phase**: `templateWillUpdate` → (template processing) → `templateDidUpdate` → `elementDidDefine`
+3. **Hydration Phase**: `elementWillHydrate` → (hydration) → `elementDidHydrate`
+4. **Completion**: `hydrationComplete` is called after all elements finish hydrating
+
+**Note:** Template processing is asynchronous and happens independently for each element. The template and hydration phases can be interleaved when multiple elements are being processed simultaneously.
+
+##### Use Cases
+
+**Performance Monitoring:**
+```typescript
+TemplateElement.config({
+    elementWillHydrate(name: string) {
+        performance.mark(`${name}-hydration-start`);
+    },
+    elementDidHydrate(name: string) {
+        performance.mark(`${name}-hydration-end`);
+        performance.measure(
+            `${name}-hydration`,
+            `${name}-hydration-start`,
+            `${name}-hydration-end`
+        );
+    },
+    hydrationComplete() {
+        // Report to analytics
+        const entries = performance.getEntriesByType('measure');
+        console.log('Hydration metrics:', entries);
+    }
+});
+```
+
+**Loading State Management:**
+```typescript
+TemplateElement.config({
+    elementWillHydrate(name: string) {
+        // Show loading indicator
+        document.body.classList.add('hydrating');
+    },
+    hydrationComplete() {
+        // Hide loading indicator once all elements are ready
+        document.body.classList.remove('hydrating');
+        document.body.classList.add('hydrated');
+    }
+});
+```
+
+**Debugging and Development:**
+```typescript
+if (process.env.NODE_ENV === 'development') {
+    const events: Array<{callback: string; name?: string; timestamp: number}> = [];
+    
+    TemplateElement.config({
+        elementDidRegister(name) {
+            events.push({ callback: 'elementDidRegister', name, timestamp: Date.now() });

+        },
+        elementWillHydrate(name) {
+            events.push({ callback: 'elementWillHydrate', name, timestamp: Date.now() });
+        },
+        elementDidHydrate(name) {
+            events.push({ callback: 'elementDidHydrate', name, timestamp: Date.now() });
+        },
+        hydrationComplete() {
+            events.push({ callback: 'hydrationComplete', timestamp: Date.now() });
+            console.table(events);
+        }
+    });

 ### Syntax
 
-All bindings use a handlebars syntax.
+All bindings use a handlebars-like syntax.
+
+Some bindings are only relevant to the browser, such as for click handlers or other pieces of dynamic interaction. As such, their bindings use single curly braces `{}`, this is to prevent an intial SSR (Server Side Rendering) or other build time rendering technologies from needing to interpret them.
+
+If a binding is relevant to both client and the back end rendering engine, it will use `{{}}` or `{{{}}}` depending on what type of data injection is being done.

 Event bindings must include the `()` as well as being preceeded by `@` in keeping with `@microsoft/fast-element` tagged template `html` syntax.
 
 ```html

+<button @click="{handleClick()}"></button>

+
+In addition you may include an event or attribute or observable, events are denoted with `e` as a reserved letter.

 #### Directives
 
 Directives are assumed to be either an attribute directive or a directive that also serves a template. Both are prepended by `f-`. The logic of these directives and what their use cases are is explained in the [FAST html documentation](https://fast.design/docs/getting-started/html-directives).
 
+Attribute directives are part of [client side binding](#syntax) and therefore use the `{}` syntax.
+
 Attribute directives include:
 - **slotted**
 
     Example:
     ```html
-    <slot f-slotted="{{slottedNodes}}"></slot>
+    <slot f-slotted="{slottedNodes}"></slot>
+    <slot f-slotted="{slottedNodes filter elements()}"></slot>
+    <slot f-slotted="{slottedNodes filter elements(div, p)}"></slot>
     ```
 
 - **children**
 
     Example:
     ```html
-    <ul f-children="{{listItems}}"><f-repeat value="{{item in list}}"><li>{{item}}</li></f-repeat></ul>
+    <ul f-children="{listItems}"><f-repeat value="{{item in list}}"><li>{{item}}</li></f-repeat></ul>
     ```
 
 - **ref**
 
     Example:
     ```html
-    <video f-ref="{{video}}"></video>
+    <video f-ref="{video}"></video>
     ```
 
 Template directives include:
@@ -117,26 +313,77 @@ Where the right operand can be either a reference to a value (string e.g. `{{foo
     <ul><f-repeat value="{{item in list}}"><li>{{item}}</li></f-repeat></ul>
     ```
 
-- **partial & apply**
+    Bindings inside `<f-repeat>` without a context prefix resolve to the custom element. For example, `{{title}}` below resolves to the host element's `title` property:
 
-    These directives are new to the declarative HTML model and allow for the ability to declare a `partial` directive containing a template partial which can then be referenced by an `apply` directive.
-
-    Example:
     ```html
-    <f-partial id="test">
-        <ul>
-            <f-repeat value="{{item in items}}">
-                <li>{{item.text}}<f-apply partial="test" value="{{item.items}}"></f-apply></li>
-            </f-repeat>
-        </ul>
-    </f-partial>
-    <f-apply partial="test" value="{{items}}"></f-apply>
+    <ul><f-repeat value="{{item in list}}"><li>{{item}} - {{title}}</li></f-repeat></ul>
     ```
 
+#### Execution Context Access
+
+In imperative fast-element templates, every binding expression receives both the data source and the execution context: `${(x, c) => c.parent.handleClick(c.event)}`. Declarative `<f-template>` expressions can access the same execution context using the `$c` prefix.
+
+This is particularly useful inside `<f-repeat>`, where `$c.parent` refers to the parent view-model (typically the host element) and `$c.event` provides the DOM event.
+
+Event handler with context access:
+
+```html
+<f-repeat value="{{item in items}}">
+    <button @click="{$c.parent.handleItemClick($c.event)}">{{item.name}}</button>
+</f-repeat>
+```
+
+Conditional rendering using a host property inside a repeat:
+
+```html
+<f-repeat value="{{item in items}}">
+    <f-when value="{{$c.parent.showNames}}">
+        <span>{{item.name}}</span>
+    </f-when>
+</f-repeat>
+```
+
+#### Unescaped HTML
+
+You can add unescaped HTML using triple braces, this will create an additional `div` element as the HTML needs an element to bind to. Where possible it is advisable to not use unescaped HTML and instead use other binding techniques.
+
+Example:
+```html
+{{{html}}}
+```
+
 ### Writing Components
 
 When writing components with the intention of using the declarative HTML syntax, it is imperative that components are written with styling and rendering of the component to be less reliant on any JavaScript state management. An example of this is relying on `elementInterals` state to style a component.
 
+### Converting Components
+
+FAST Components written using the `html` tag template literal can be partially converted via the supplied `.yml` rules made for use with [ast-grep](https://ast-grep.github.io/).
+
+Example:
+
+```ts
+// before
+export const template = html`
+    <slot ${slotted("slottedNodes")}></slot>
+`;
+// after
+export const template = `
+    <slot f-slotted="{slottedNodes}"></slot>
+`;
+```
+
+Which creates a starting point for converting the tag template literals to the declarative HTML syntax.
+
+If your template includes JavaScript specific logic that does not conform to those rules, the fix may not be applied or may apply incorrectly. It is therefore suggested that complex logic instead leverages the custom elements JavaScript class.
+
+#### Available Rules

+- `@microsoft/fast-html/rules/call-expression-with-event-argument.yml`
