 ## Live-preview
 
-В live-режиме браузер опрашивает только `/live`. Сервер следит за файлами, в которых объявлены страницы, а также за системными и пользовательскими CSS/JS. При изменении он пересобирает manifest; клиент сохраняет его и перезагружается с новым runtime. В запускаемом файле вызов `run()` обязательно помещать под `if __name__ == "__main__"`, чтобы watcher не запускал второй сервер.
+В live-режиме браузер опрашивает только `/live`. Сервер следит за файлами страниц, импортированными модулями с функциями `@Reactive`, а также за системными и пользовательскими CSS/JS. При изменении он пересобирает manifest; клиент сохраняет его и перезагружается с новым runtime. В запускаемом файле вызов `run()` обязательно помещать под `if __name__ == "__main__"`, чтобы watcher не запускал второй сервер.
+
+Используйте `@Reactive` для обычных функций уровня модуля, например для локализации или общих значений. Декоратор сохраняет аргументы и возвращаемое значение функции. При редактировании её файла live preview заново выполняет рендер всех страниц.
+
+```python
+from docslib import Reactive
+
+@Reactive
+def product_name() -> str:
+    return "Мой продукт"
+```
 
 HTTP-загрузка и исполнение произвольных `.py` файлов намеренно отсутствуют: такая ручка была бы удалённым выполнением кода. Live-preview работает с локальными исходниками проекта.
