+# PropertyLValue 
+
+The `Napi::Object::PropertyLValue` class is a helper class provided by
+`Napi::Object` to allow more intuitive assignment of properties.
+
+## Example
+```cpp
+#include <napi.h>
+
+using namespace Napi;
+
+Void Init(Env env) {
+  // Create a new instance
+  Object obj = Object::New(env);
+
+  // Assign a value to a property. 
+  obj["hello"] = "world";
+}
+```
+
+In the above example, `obj["hello"]` returns a `Napi::Object::PropertyLValue`
+whose `operator=()` method accepts a string which will become the value of the
+"hello" property of the newly created object.
+
+In general, `obj[key] = value` is the equivalent of `obj.Set(key, value)`, where
+the types of `key` and `value` are all those supported by
+[`Napi::Object::Set()`](object.md#set).
+
+## Methods
+
+### operator Value()
+
+```cpp
+operator Value() const;
+```
+
+Implicitly casts this `Napi::Object::PropertyLValue` to a `Napi::Value`.
+
+### operator =()
+
+```cpp
+template <typename ValueType>
+PropertyLValue& operator =(ValueType value);
+```
+
+* `[in] value` a value to assign to the property referred to by the
+  `Napi::Object::PropertyLValue`. The type of the value is one of the types
+  supported by the second parameter of [`Napi::Object::Set()`](object.md#set).
+
+Returns a self-reference.
