 function Welcome(props) {
   return <h1>Hello, {props.name}</h1>;
 }
 
+// 2. Create our "app"
 const element = <Welcome name="Faisal Arkan" />;
+
+// 3. Render the app in the browser window
 ReactDOM.render(
   element,
   document.getElementById('root')
 );
 
 ```
+First, we define our Component (this is a functional, stateless component). It takes a single argument, `props`, and from this object, only the value `name` is ever used. We could replace this with a `firstName` and `lastName` if we wanted. But we don't right now.
 
-The value ```name="Faisal Arkan"``` will be assigned to ```{props.name}``` from ```function Welcome(props)``` and returns a component ```<h1>Hello, Faisal Arkan</h1>``` which is saved into the const variable ```element```. The component can then be rendered via ```ReactDOM.render(element, document.getElementById('root'));```. ```document.getElementById('root')``` in this case is the target location you would like the ```element``` component to be rendered.
+Second, the Welcome component is called with the value ```name="Faisal Arkan"```. This will be assigned to ```{props.name}``` in our component. The Welcome component called with this name returns the element ```<h1>Hello, Faisal Arkan</h1>```. We save this into the const variable ```element```.

 ### Other ways to declare components
 
 There are many ways to declare components when using React.js, but there are two kinds of components, ***stateless*** components and ***stateful*** components.
 
+Briefly, stateful components are clever. They can hold their own information (in the `state` object) *and* inherit `props` (as seen above) from parents. Stateless components can *only* inherit `props`, so if they need to update they have to be told by their parent.
+
+See the below examples of af Cat component. The stateful Cat component is aware of its feeling, the stateless one is not.
