+# External (template)
+
+The `Napi::External` template class implements the ability to create a `Napi::Value` object with arbitrary C++ data. It is the user's responsibility to manage the memory for the arbitrary C++ data.
+
+`Napi::External` objects can be created with an optional Finalizer function and optional Hint value. The Finalizer function, if specified, is called when your `Napi::External` object is released by Node's garbage collector. It gives your code the opportunity to free any dynamically created data. If you specify a Hint value, it is passed to your Finalizer function.
+
+## Methods
+
+### New
+
+```cpp
+template <typename T>
+static Napi::External Napi::External::New(napi_env env, T* data);
+```
+
+- `[in] env`: The `napi_env` environment in which to construct the `Napi::External` object.
+- `[in] data`: The arbitrary C++ data to be held by the `Napi::External` object.
+
+Returns the created `Napi::External<T>` object.
+
+### New
+
+```cpp
+template <typename T>
+static Napi::External Napi::External::New(napi_env env,
+                    T* data,
+                    Finalizer finalizeCallback);
+```
+
+- `[in] env`: The `napi_env` environment in which to construct the `Napi::External` object.
+- `[in] data`: The arbitrary C++ data to be held by the `Napi::External` object.
+- `[in] finalizeCallback`: A function called when the `Napi::External` object is released by the garbage collector accepting a T* and returning void.
+
+Returns the created `Napi::External<T>` object.
+
+### New
+
+```cpp
+template <typename T>
+static Napi::External Napi::External::New(napi_env env,
+                    T* data,
+                    Finalizer finalizeCallback,
+                    Hint* finalizeHint);
+```
+
+- `[in] env`: The `napi_env` environment in which to construct the `Napi::External` object.
+- `[in] data`: The arbitrary C++ data to be held by the `Napi::External` object.
+- `[in] finalizeCallback`: A function called when the `Napi::External` object is released by the garbage collector accepting T* and Hint* parameters and returning void.
+- `[in] finalizeHint`: A hint value passed to the `finalizeCallback` function.
+
+Returns the created `Napi::External<T>` object.
+
+### Data
+
+```cpp
+T* Napi::External::Data() const;
+```
+
+Returns a pointer to the arbitrary C++ data held by the `Napi::External` object.
