## Documentation
This repository hosts the language documentation in addition to implementation, which is accessible on https://luau-lang.org.
A [separate site repository](https://github.com/luau-lang/site) hosts the language documentation, which is accessible on https://luau-lang.org.
Changes to this documentation that improve clarity, fix grammatical issues, explain aspects that haven't been explained before and the like are warmly welcomed.
Please feel free to [create a pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/about-pull-requests/) to improve our documentation. Note that at this point the documentation is English-only.

If you're thinking of adding a new feature to the language, library, analysis tools, etc., please *don't* start by submitting a pull request.
Luau team has internal priorities and a roadmap that may or may not align with specific features, so before starting to work on a feature please submit an issue describing the missing feature that you'd like to add.
For features that result in observable change of language syntax or semantics, you'd need to [create an RFC](https://github.com/luau-lang/luau/blob/master/rfcs/README.md) to make sure that the feature is needed and well designed.

Finally, please note that Luau tries to carry a minimal feature set. All features must be evaluated not just for the benefits that they provide, but also for the downsides/costs in terms of language simplicity, maintainability, cross-feature interaction etc.
As such, feature requests may not be accepted even if a comprehensive RFC is written - don't expect Luau to gain a feature just because another programming language has it.
