Does use-package appliy :custom before or after the package is loaded?

Hi. I want to customize a variable. I want to determine its value programmatically from its default value proposed by the package's author. To do this, I want to use :custom. However, use-package's documentation doesn't tell me if it executes :custom before or after the package is loaded. Please improve the documentation by writing the answer to this question in it.

Actually, you don't need to care about it. Your customizations will be successfully reflected and retained, whether before or after the package is loaded. This is not a use-package, but a defcustom specification, so it is better to read its documentation.
