Pages are a special type of limited component which is tied to a particular page type in the theme. For instance, a ProductPage would run whenever a /products/... page is loaded.
Pages are similar to components in that:
- They have similar lifecycle hooks (beforeCreate, ready, etc.)
- They have access to the same helpers like logging, cart state, etc.
Pages differ from Components in the following ways:
- Only one Page is ever run per pageload, and only once.
- Pages accept extra contextual information specific to the type of page they are (i.e. a product page receives metadata about the product context.)
