Initial docs for DOM static resource loading functions

+## Resource Preloading APIs {/*resource-preloading-apis*/}
+
+These APIs can be used to make apps faster by pre-loading resources such as scripts, stylesheets, and fonts as soon as you know you need them, for example before navigating to another page where the resources will be used:
+
+* [`preload`](/reference/react-dom/preload) lets you fetch a stylesheet, font, image, or external script that you expect to use.
+* [`preloadModule`](/reference/react-dom/preloadModule) lets you fetch an ESM module that you expect to use.
+* [`preinit`](/reference/react-dom/preinit) lets you fetch and evaluate an external script or fetch and insert a stylesheet.
+* [`preinitModule`](/reference/react-dom/preinitModule) lets you fetch and evaluate an ESM module.
+* [`prefetchDNS`](/reference/react-dom/prefetchDNS) lets you prefetch the IP address of a DNS domain name that you expect to connect to.
+* [`preconnect`](/reference/react-dom/preconnect) lets you connect to a server you expect to request resources from, even if you don't know what resources you'll need yet.

+## Reference {/*reference*/}
+
+### `preconnect(href)` {/*preconnect*/}
+
+To preconnect to a host, call the `preconnect` function from `react-dom`.
+
+```js
+import { preconnect } from 'react-dom';
+
+function AppRoot() {
+  preconnect("https://example.com");
+  // ...

+[See more examples below.](#usage)
+
+The `preconnect` function provides the browser with a hint that it should open a connection to the given server. If the browser chooses to do so, this can speed up the loading of resources from that server. 
+
+#### Parameters {/*parameters*/}
+
+* `href`: a string. The URL of the server you want to connect to.
+
+
+#### Returns {/*returns*/}
+
+`preconnect` returns nothing.
+
+#### Caveats {/*caveats*/}
+
+* Multiple calls to `preconnect` with the same server have the same effect as a single call.
+* In the browser, you can call `preconnect` in any situation: while rendering a component, in an effect, in an event handler, and so on.
+* In server-side rendering or when rendering Server Components, `preconnect` only has an effect if you call it while rendering a component or in an async context originating from rendering a component. Any other calls will be ignored.
+* If you know the specific resources you'll need, you can call [other functions](/reference/react-dom/#resource-preloading-apis) instead that will start loading the resources right away.
+* There is no benefit to preconnecting to the same server the webpage itself is hosted from because it's already been connected to by the time the hint would be given.

+### `preinit(href, options)` {/*preinit*/}
+
+To preinit a script or stylesheet, call the `preinit` function from `react-dom`.
+
+```js
+import { preinit } from 'react-dom';
+
+function AppRoot() {
+  preinit("https://example.com/script.js", {as: "script"});
+  // ...
+}
+
+```
+
+[See more examples below.](#usage)
+
+The `preinit` function provides the browser with a hint that it should start downloading and executing the given resource, which can save time. Scripts that you `preinit` are executed when they finish downloading. Stylesheets that you preinit are inserted into the document, which causes them to go into effect right away.
+
+#### Parameters {/*parameters*/}
+
+* `href`: a string. The URL of the resource you want to download and execute.
+* `options`: an object. It contains the following properties:
+  *  `as`: a required string. The type of resource. Its possible values are `script` and `style`.
+  * `precedence`: a string. Required with stylesheets. Says where to insert the stylesheet relative to others. Stylesheets with higher precedence can override those with lower precedence. The possible values are `reset`, `low`, `medium`, `high`. 
+  *  `crossOrigin`: a string. The [CORS policy](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Attributes/crossorigin) to use. Its possible values are `anonymous` and `use-credentials`. It is required when `as` is set to `"fetch"`.
+  *  `integrity`: a string. A cryptographic hash of the resource, to [verify its authenticity](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Security/Subresource_Integrity).
+  *  `nonce`: a string. A cryptographic [nonce to allow the resource](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/nonce) when using a strict Content Security Policy. 
+  *  `fetchPriority`: a string. Suggests a relative priority for fetching the resource. The possible values are `auto` (the default), `high`, and `low`.
+
+#### Returns {/*returns*/}
+
+`preinit` returns nothing.
+
+#### Caveats {/*caveats*/}
+
+* Multiple calls to `preinit` with the same `href` have the same effect as a single call.
+* In the browser, you can call `preinit` in any situation: while rendering a component, in an effect, in an event handler, and so on.
+* In server-side rendering or when rendering Server Components, `preinit` only has an effect if you call it while rendering a component or in an async context originating from rendering a component. Any other calls will be ignored.

+## Usage {/*usage*/}
+
+### Preiniting when rendering {/*preiniting-when-rendering*/}
+
+Call `preinit` when rendering a component if you know that it or its children will use a specific resource, and you're OK with the resource being evaluated and thereby taking effect immediately upon being downloaded.
+
+<Recipes titleText="Examples of preiniting">
+
+#### Preiniting an external script {/*preiniting-an-external-script*/}
+
+```js
+import { preinit } from 'react-dom';
+
+function AppRoot() {
+  preinit("https://example.com/script.js", {as: "script"});
+  return ...;
+}
+```
+
+If you want the browser to download the script but not to execute it right away, use [`preload`](/reference/react-dom/preload) instead. If you want to load an ESM module, use [`preinitModule`](/reference/react-dom/preinitModule).
+
+<Solution />
+
+#### Preiniting a stylesheet {/*preiniting-a-stylesheet*/}
+
+```js
+import { preinit } from 'react-dom';
+
+function AppRoot() {
+  preinit("https://example.com/style.css", {as: "style", precedence: "medium"});
+  return ...;
+}
+```
+
+The `precedence` option, which is required, lets you control the order of stylesheets within the document. Stylesheets with higher precedence can overrule those with lower precedence.
+
+If you want to download the stylesheet but not to insert it into the document right away, use [`preload`](/reference/react-dom/preload) instead.
