# Writing documentation

The generated documentation is fetched from the doc blocks inside the components source files. If we would have a component like the one below, it would generate the corresponding documentation. Kompendium understands how to read Markdown, so any additional markup will automatically be parsed.

{% code title="my-component.tsx" %}

```typescript
import { Component, h, Prop } from '@stencil/core';

/**
 * This is a sample component
 * 
 * Kompendium will parse the doc blocks and render it using Markdown
 */
@Component({
    tag: 'my-component',
    shadow: true,
})
export class MyComponent {
    /**
     * This is a sample property
     */
    @Prop()
    public name: string;

    render() {
        return <p>Hello, {this.name}!</p>;
    }
}
```

{% endcode %}

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```

```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
