`Children` is a special prop type that allows you to receive nested `Html` that is provided like html child elements.

```rust
use yew::{function_component, html, Html, Properties, Children};

#[function_component]
fn App() -> Html {
    html! {
        // highlight-start
        <HelloWorld>
            <span>{"Hey what is up ;)"}</span>
            <h1>{"THE SKY"}</h1>
        </HelloWorld>
        // highlight-end
    }
}

#[derive(Properties, PartialEq)]
pub struct Props {
    // highlight-next-line
    pub children: Children, // the field name `children` is important!
}

#[function_component]
fn HelloWorld(props: &Props) -> Html {
    html! {
        <div class="very-stylized-container">
    // highlight-next-line
            { for props.children.iter() } // you can forward children like this
        </div>
    }
}
```
