+ * Components are a special kind of `View` that is designed to be easily composable, 
+ * making it simple to add child views and build complex user interfaces.<br />
+ * Unlike views, which are render-agnostic, components have a specific set of rendering 
+ * guidelines that allow for a more declarative development style.<br />
+ * Components are defined with the `create` static method, which takes a tagged template.
+ * @module
+ * @extends Rasti.View
+ * @param {object} options Object containing options. The following keys will be merged to `this`: model, state, key, onDestroy, onRender, onCreate, onChange.
+ * @property {string} key A unique key to identify the component. Used to recycle child components.
+ * @property {object} model A `Rasti.Model` or any emitter object containing data and business logic.
+ * @property {object} state A `Rasti.Model` or any emitter object containing data and business logic, to be used as internal state.
+ * @example
+ * import { Component, Model } from 'rasti';
+ * // Create Timer component.
+ * const Timer = Component.create`
+ *     <div>
+ *         Seconds: <span>${({ model }) => model.seconds}</span>
