# Conditional Logic Reference Use this section when you need exact syntax for S-Docs conditional logic. These reference pages help you build `RENDER` statements, structure nested conditions, and start from working patterns. {% hint style="info" %} If you need a first walkthrough, start with [Getting Started with Conditional Logic](broken://spaces/WKNnJmhJBQwhdk5WBFsi/pages/91KlVIBfV6FJYvedmQ5y). If you need task-based guidance, use [Conditional Logic (How-to)](https://github.com/kvantiem-sdocs/Developer-Hub-Documentation/blob/main/advanced-template-logic/conditional-logic/conditional-logic-how-to.md). If you already have template logic and need exact syntax or examples, stay in this reference set. {% endhint %} {% hint style="success" %} **Recommended flow** If you are new to conditional logic references, read these pages in order: 1. [Conditional Logic Structure](/developer-hub/template-configuration-and-styling/conditional-logic-reference/conditional-logic-structure.md) 2. [Conditional Logic in DOCX Templates](/developer-hub/template-configuration-and-styling/conditional-logic-reference/conditional-logic-in-microsoft-templates-docx-pptx-xlsx.md) 3. [Conditional Logic Working Examples](/developer-hub/template-configuration-and-styling/conditional-logic-reference/conditional-logic-working-examples.md) Start here when you want the fastest path from syntax to working output. {% endhint %} Start with one of these reference paths:
