# Component Children

Used to mark where children of instances of this component will be placed.

Any instance of a component that have a **Component Children** placed in its heirarchy will be
able to have children. These children will appear as though they were inserted at the location of
the **Component Children** node.

To fully understand this concept it's important to understand node hierarchies.
Visual nodes can be placed in a hierarchy which will cause them to be layouted and drawn appropriately.
