+    \title Export Item
+    \brief Exports dependencies and properties to other products.
+
+    An \c Export item can appear inside a \l{Product Item}. The properties attached to it will
+    take effect in all products that depend on the product inside which the product module is defined.
+    As an example, consider these two products:
+    \code
+    Product {
+        name: "A"
+        Export {
+            Depends { name: "cpp" }
+            cpp.includePaths: "."
+        }
+    }
+
+    Product {
+        name: "B"
+        Depends { name: "A" }
+    }
+    \endcode
+
+    The sources in product B will be able to use headers from product A without specifiying
+    the full path to them, because the include path has been made known to the compiler via
+    A's product module.
+
+    \note This relationship is transitive, so a product C depending on product B will also
+    get the include paths via A's product module.
