# The `x-cloak` directive
We use the `x-cloak` to delay the rendering of elements until AlpineJS has fully loaded. In some of the examples from the previous lessons, some elements were flickering before AlpineJS loaded. We can prevent flickering by using the `x-cloak` directive. In doing so, `x-cloak` will hide the element until AlpineJS has completely loaded. We use `x-cloak` like other AlpineJS directives. However, we don't provide value to it. 

Learn to use x-cloak to hide elements before AlpineJS is loaded.
