+# String
+
+## Constructor
+
+```cpp
+Napi::String::String();
+```
+
+Returns a new **empty** `Napi::String` instance.
+
+If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will get thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
+being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
+attempting to use the returned value.
+
+```cpp
+Napi::String::String(napi_env env, napi_value value); ///< Wraps a N-API value primitive.
+```
+- `[in] env` - The environment in which to create the string.
+- `[in] value` - The primitive to wrap.
+
+Returns a `Napi::String` wrapping a `napi_value`.
+
+If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will get thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
+being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
+attempting to use the returned value.
+
+## Operators
+
+### operator std::string
+
+```cpp
+Napi::String::operator std::string() const;
+```
+
+Returns a UTF-8 encoded C++ string.
+
+### operator std::u16string
+```cpp
+Napi::String::operator std::u16string() const;
+```
+
+Returns a UTF-16 encoded C++ string.
+
+## Methods
+
+### New
+```cpp
+Napi::String::New();
+```
+
+Returns a new empty `Napi::String`.
+
+### New
+```cpp
+Napi::String::New(napi_env env, const std::string& value);
+Napi::String::New(napi_env env, const std::u16::string& value);
+Napi::String::New(napi_env env, const char* value);
+Napi::String::New(napi_env env, const char16_t* value);
+Napi::String::New(napi_env env, const char* value, size_t length);
+Napi::String::New(napi_env env, const char16_t* value, size_t length);
+```
+
+- `[in] env`: The `napi_env` environment in which to construct the `Napi::Value` object.
+- `[in] value`: The C++ primitive from which to instantiate the `Napi::Value`. `value` may be any of:
+ - `std::string&` - represents an ANSI string.
+ - `std::u16string&` - represents a UTF16-LE string.
+ - `const char*` - represents a UTF8 string.
+ - `const char16_t*` - represents a UTF16-LE string.
+- `[in] length`: The length of the string (not necessarily null-terminated) in code units.
+
+Returns a new `Napi::String` that represents the passed in C++ string.
+
+If an error occurs, a `Napi::Error` will get thrown. If C++ exceptions are not
+being used, callers should check the result of `Env::IsExceptionPending` before
+attempting to use the returned value.
+
+### Utf8Value
+```cpp
+std::string Napi::String::Utf8Value() const;
+```
+
+Returns a UTF-8 encoded C++ string.
+
+### Utf16Value
+```cpp
+std::u16string Napi::String::Utf16Value() const;
+```
+
+Returns a UTF-16 encoded C++ string.
