# Declaration

Declare a symbol in the program. Declaring classes, interfaces, enums, etc. Should also pass in access modifier so we can manage access

* jsx

  ```tsx
  import { Declaration } from "@alloy-js/java";


  <Declaration
    name={string | Namekey}
    nameKind={JavaElements}
    refkey={Refkey}
   />
  ```

* stc

  ```ts
  import { Declaration } from "@alloy-js/java/stc";


  Declaration({
    name: string | Namekey,
    nameKind: JavaElements,
    refkey: Refkey,
  }).children(children)
  ```
