+ * Handsontable constructor.
+ *
+ * @core
+ * @class Core
+ * @description
+ *
+ * The `Handsontable` class (known as the `Core`) lets you modify the grid's behavior by using Handsontable's public API methods.
+ *
+ * ::: only-for react
+ * To use these methods, associate a Handsontable instance with your instance
+ * of the [`HotTable` component](@/guides/getting-started/installation.md#hottable-component),
+ * by using React's `ref` feature (read more on the [Instance methods](@/guides/getting-started/react-methods.md) page).
+ * :::
+ *
+ * ## How to call a method
+ *
+ * ::: only-for javascript
+ * ```js
+ * // create a Handsontable instance
+ * const hot = new Handsontable(document.getElementById('example'), options);
+ *
+ * // call a method
+ * hot.setDataAtCell(0, 0, 'new value');
+ * ```
+ * :::
+ *
+ * ::: only-for react
+ * ```jsx{3,7,13}
+ * import { useRef } from 'react';
+ *
+ * const hotTableComponent = useRef(null);
+ *
+ * <HotTable
+ *   // associate your `HotTable` component with a Handsontable instance
+ *   ref={hotTableComponent}
+ *   settings={options}
+ * />
+ *
+ * // access the Handsontable instance, under the `.current.hotInstance` property
+ * // call a method
+ * hotTableComponent.current.hotInstance.setDataAtCell(0, 0, 'new value');
+ * ```
+ * :::
+ *
+ * @param {HTMLElement} rootElement The element to which the Handsontable instance is injected.
+ * @param {object} userSettings The user defined options.
+ * @param {boolean} [rootInstanceSymbol=false] Indicates if the instance is root of all later instances created.
