+
+
+The _ShadowEnv_ class creates an environment that references the _view_ and provides a connection to the _shadow worker environment_.
+
+The _view_ consists of the _ComponentContext_ and the _ViewComponents_ contained within it.
+
+The _worker environment_ is the runtime environment for all _shadow objects_ and consists of the _MessageRouter_, the _Kernel_, and the _Registry_.
