+    Maximum number of hits per page.
+
+    Algolia uses `page` and `hitsPerPage` to control how search results are displayed ([paginated](https://www.algolia.com/doc/guides/building-search-ui/ui-and-ux-patterns/pagination/js/)).
+
+    - `hitsPerPage`: sets the number of search results (_hits_) displayed per page.
+    - `page`: specifies the page number of the search results you want to retrieve. Page numbering starts at 0, so the first page is `page=0`, the second is `page=1`, and so on.
+
+    For example, to display 10 results per page starting from the third page, set `hitsPerPage` to 10 and `page` to 2.
