Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input Text:** A Markdown file representing a 404 error page from the Godot Engine documentation.
   - **Task:** Classify into zero or more target tables: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`
   - **Rules:** Return exactly one JSON array. Use `[]` if not useful documentation content. Use one or more valid table names if conversion is needed. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.

2.  **Evaluate Content against Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: Typically contains actual documentation content (tutorials, guides, reference pages). This is a 404 page ("Page not found"), which is generally considered boilerplate/error page content, not useful documentation chunks for training or reference.
   - `api_mapping`: Maps API classes/methods to documentation. This page doesn't contain API references.
   - `label_prototypes`: Contains labels or prototypes for UI/ML tasks. Not applicable here.
   - **Conclusion:** The content is a standard 404 error page. It's not useful documentation content. According to the rules: "Use [] only if the file is not useful documentation content."

3.  **Format Output:**
   - Must be exactly one JSON array.
   - Result: `[]`
   - Check constraints: No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.

   Output matches requirement.✅
   Proceed. 
   Self-Correction/Verification during thought: 
   Could it be `docs_chunks`? Sometimes 404 pages are kept as chunks, but the prompt explicitly says "Use [] only if the file is not useful documentation content." A 404 page is definitively not useful documentation content. So `[]` is correct.
   Output: `[]`
   Ready. 
   Generate. 
   [Output Generation] -> `[]` (as raw JSON)
   Check format: "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
   All good. 
   Proceeds. 
   [Output] `[]`
   *(Self-Correction/Refinement during thought)*: Wait, sometimes 404 pages are classified as `docs_chunks` if they contain navigation or footer info, but the rule is strict: "Use [] only if the file is not useful documentation content." I'll stick with `[]`.
   Final answer: `[]`✅
   Output matches. 
   Proceeds. 
   [Output Generation] `[]`

Godot Engine 4.6 documentation in English
Complying with licenses
Edit on GitHub
Learn how to contribute!
Complying with licenses

Warning
The recommendations in this page
are not legal advice.
They are provided
in good faith to help users navigate license attribution requirements.
What are licenses?

Godot is created and distributed under the
MIT License
.
It doesn't have a sole owner, as every contributor that submits code to
the project does it under this same license and keeps ownership of their
contribution.
The license is the legal requirement for you (or your company) to use and
distribute the software (and derivative projects, including games made with it).
Your game or project can have a different license, but it still needs to comply
with the original one.
Note
This section covers compliance with licenses from a user perspective.
If you are interested in licence compliance as a contributor, you can find
guidelines
here
.
Tip
Alongside the Godot license text, remember to also list third-party notices
for assets you're using, such as textures, models, sounds, music and fonts.
This includes free assets, which often come with licenses that require
attribution.
Requirements

In the case of the MIT license, the only requirement is to include the license
text somewhere in your game or derivative project.
This text reads as follows:
This game uses Godot Engine, available under the following license:

Copyright (c) 2014-present Godot Engine contributors.
Copyright (c) 2007-2014 Juan Linietsky, Ariel Manzur.

Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy
of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal
in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights
to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell
copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is
furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions:

The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all
copies or substantial portions of the Software.

THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE
AUTHORS OR COPYRIGHT HOLDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER
LIABILITY, WHETHER IN AN ACTION OF CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, ARISING FROM,
OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR THE USE OR OTHER DEALINGS IN THE
SOFTWARE.
Copy to clipboard
Beside its own MIT license, Godot includes code from a number of third-party
libraries. See
Third-party licenses
for details.
Note
Your games do not need to be under the same license. You are free to release
your Godot projects under any license and to create commercial games with
the engine.
Inclusion

The license text must be made available to the user. The license doesn't specify
how the text has to be included, but here are the most common approaches (you
only need to implement one of them, not all).
Credits screen

Include the above license text somewhere in the credits screen. It can be at the
bottom after showing the rest of the credits. Most large studios use this
approach with open source licenses.
Licenses screen

Some games have a special menu (often in the settings) to display licenses.
This menu is typically accessed with a button called
Third-party Licenses
or
Open Source Licenses
.
Output log

Printing the license text using the
print()
function may be enough on platforms where a global output log is readable.
This is the case on desktop platforms, Android and HTML5 (but not iOS).
Accompanying file

If the game is distributed on desktop platforms, a file containing the license
text can be added to the software that is installed to the user PC.
Printed manual

If the game includes a printed manual, the license text can be included there.
Link to the license

The Godot Engine developers consider that a link to
godotengine.org/license
in your game documentation or credits would be an acceptable way to satisfy
the license terms.
Tip
Godot provides several methods to get license information in the
Engine
singleton. This allows you to source the
license information directly from the engine binary, which prevents the
information from becoming outdated if you update engine versions.
For the engine itself:
Engine.get_license_text
For third-party components used by the engine:
Engine.get_license_info
Engine.get_copyright_info
Third-party licenses

Godot itself contains software written by
third parties
,
which is compatible with, but not covered by Godot's MIT license.
Many of these dependencies are distributed under permissive open source licenses
which require attribution by explicitly citing their copyright statement and
license text in the final product's documentation.
Given the scope of the Godot project, this is fairly difficult to do thoroughly.
For the Godot editor, the full documentation of third-party copyrights and
licenses is provided in the
COPYRIGHT.txt
file.
A good option for end users to document third-party licenses is to include this
file in your project's distribution, which you can e.g. rename to
GODOT_COPYRIGHT.txt
to prevent any confusion with your own code and assets.

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input File:** `pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md`
   - **Content:** Markdown documentation about complying with Godot Engine licenses. Covers MIT license, requirements, inclusion methods (credits screen, licenses screen, output log, etc.), third-party licenses, and engine methods for getting license info.
   - **Task:** Classify into zero or more target tables: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`
   - **Output Format:** Exactly one JSON array. Valid values are the table names. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.

2.  **Understand Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: General documentation content, articles, guides, reference pages.
   - `api_mapping`: Maps API functions/classes to documentation or describes API usage/signatures.
   - `label_prototypes`: Defines UI labels, strings, or localization prototypes.

3.  **Evaluate Content against Tables:**
   - The content is clearly a documentation page about license compliance. It explains concepts, lists requirements, and mentions some API methods (`Engine.get_license_text`, etc.) but the primary focus is general documentation/guide.
   - It fits perfectly into `docs_chunks`.
   - Does it fit `api_mapping`? It mentions a couple of engine methods, but it's not primarily an API reference or mapping. It's a guide. So `docs_chunks` is sufficient.
   - Does it fit `label_prototypes`? No.
   - Therefore, the classification should be `["docs_chunks"]`.

4.  **Format Output:**
   - Must be exactly one JSON array.
   - `["docs_chunks"]`
   - Check constraints: No markdown fences, no prose, no thinking text.

   Output: `["docs_chunks"]`

   Double-check: The prompt says "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
   I will output exactly `["docs_chunks"]`.✅
   All constraints met. Proceed. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   Could it be `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`? The prompt says "zero or more". The content is primarily docs. I'll stick with `["docs_chunks"]` as it's the most accurate. Even if it mentions APIs, it's a docs chunk. I'll output `["docs_chunks"]`.
   Final check of the prompt: "Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]"
   Output matches.✅
   Proceed. 
   Output Generation. 
   `["docs_chunks"]`
   (Note: I will ensure no backticks or markdown formatting around it as requested: "No markdown.")
   Actually, the prompt says "No markdown fences", but usually it's safer to just output raw JSON. I'll output raw JSON.
   `["docs_chunks"]` is correct.✅
   Done. 
   Output matches request.

Classification Response Content

["docs_chunks"]

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input Text:** A Markdown file titled "Source: https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/docs_changelog.html" containing a changelog of new documentation pages added to the Godot Engine documentation across various versions (3.0 to 4.6).
   - **Task:** Classify the Markdown into zero or more target tables from the list: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`.
   - **Output Format:** Exactly one JSON array. Valid values are the table names. Use `[]` if not useful. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.
   - **Rules:** Return only valid JSON. No markdown fences. No prose. No thinking text.

2.  **Understand Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: Typically refers to documentation content split into logical chunks/sections, often used for RAG or documentation indexing. This file is clearly a documentation changelog listing new pages, which fits well as documentation content.
   - `api_mapping`: Maps API classes/methods to documentation or code. This file lists documentation page titles, not API mappings.
   - `label_prototypes`: Defines labels or tags for classification. This file doesn't define labels.
   - Conclusion: `docs_chunks` is the most appropriate classification.

3.  **Evaluate Content against `docs_chunks`:**
   - The content is a structured list of documentation pages added per version. It's pure documentation metadata/changelog. It fits the definition of documentation content that would be chunked or indexed.
   - Therefore, it should be classified as `["docs_chunks"]`.

4.  **Format Output:**
   - Must be exactly one JSON array.
   - `["docs_chunks"]`
   - Check constraints: No markdown, no prose, no thinking text. Just the JSON.

   Final check of the prompt: "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text. /no_think"
   Output: `["docs_chunks"]`

   All constraints met. Proceed. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   Could it be `[]`? The prompt says "Use [] only if the file is not useful documentation content." This is definitely useful documentation content (a changelog for docs). So `["docs_chunks"]` is correct.
   I will output exactly `["docs_chunks"]`.✅
   Proceed. 
   Output Generation. 
   `["docs_chunks"]` (no backticks, no newlines if possible, but standard JSON is fine)
   Wait, the prompt says "No markdown." So I won't use backticks.
   Final string: `["docs_chunks"]`
   Done. 
   Output matches requirement. 
   Proceeds. 
   [Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]`
   *(Self-Correction/Verification during thought)*: 
   Let's double check the exact table names: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`.
   The content is a changelog of documentation pages. It's clearly documentation. So `docs_chunks` is correct.
   JSON array format: `["docs_chunks"]`
   All good. 
   Output matches. 
   Proceeds. 
   [Final Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]` (exactly)
   *(Note: I will ensure no extra whitespace or newlines are added if possible, but standard JSON formatting is fine.)*
   Ready. 
   Output: `["docs_chunks"]`
   *(Done.)*

Which platforms are supported by Godot?

For the editor:
Windows
macOS
Linux, *BSD
Android (experimental)
Web
(experimental)
For exporting your games:
Windows
macOS
Linux, *BSD
Android
iOS
Web
Both 32- and 64-bit binaries are supported where it makes sense, with 64
being the default. Official macOS builds support Apple Silicon natively as well as x86_64.
Some users also report building and using Godot successfully on ARM-based
systems with Linux, like the Raspberry Pi.
For information about console support, see the
Godot website
.
For more on this, see the sections on
exporting
and
compiling Godot yourself
.
Note
Godot 3 also had support for Universal Windows Platform (UWP). This platform
port was removed in Godot 4 due to lack of maintenance, and it being
deprecated by Microsoft. It is still available in the current stable release
of Godot 3 for interested users.
Which programming languages are supported in Godot?

The officially supported languages for Godot are GDScript, C#, and C++.
See the subcategories for each language in the
scripting
section.
If you are just starting out with either Godot or game development in general,
GDScript is the recommended language to learn and use since it is native to Godot.
While scripting languages tend to be less performant than lower-level languages in
the long run, for prototyping, developing Minimum Viable Products (MVPs), and
focusing on Time-To-Market (TTM), GDScript will provide a fast, friendly, and capable
way of developing your games.
Note that C# support is still relatively new, and as such, you may encounter
some issues along the way. C# support is also currently missing on the web
platform. Our friendly and hard-working development community is always
ready to tackle new problems as they arise, but since this is an open source
project, we recommend that you first do some due diligence yourself. Searching
through discussions on
open issues
is a great way to start your troubleshooting.
As for new languages, support is possible via third parties with GDExtensions. (See the question
about plugins below). Work is currently underway, for example, on unofficial bindings for Godot
to
Python
and
Nim
.
What is GDScript and why should I use it?

GDScript is Godot's integrated scripting language. It was built from the ground
up to maximize Godot's potential in the least amount of code, affording both novice
and expert developers alike to capitalize on Godot's strengths as fast as possible.
If you've ever written anything in a language like Python before, then you'll feel
right at home. For examples and a complete overview of the power GDScript offers
you, check out the
GDScript scripting guide
.
There are several reasons to use GDScript, but the most salient reason is the overall
reduction of complexity
.
The original intent of creating a tightly integrated, custom scripting language for
Godot was two-fold: first, it reduces the amount of time necessary to get up and running
with Godot, giving developers a rapid way of exposing themselves to the engine with a
focus on productivity; second, it reduces the overall burden of maintenance, attenuates
the dimensionality of issues, and allows the developers of the engine to focus on squashing
bugs and improving features related to the engine core, rather than spending a lot of time
trying to get a small set of incremental features working across a large set of languages.
Since Godot is an open source project, it was imperative from the start to prioritize a
more integrated and seamless experience over attracting additional users by supporting
more familiar programming languages, especially when supporting those more familiar
languages would result in a worse experience. We understand if you would rather use
another language in Godot (see the list of supported options above). That being said, if
you haven't given GDScript a try, try it for
three days
. Just like Godot,
once you see how powerful it is and how rapid your development becomes, we think GDScript
will grow on you.
More information about getting comfortable with GDScript or dynamically typed
languages can be found in the
GDScript: An introduction to dynamic languages
tutorial.
What were the motivations behind creating GDScript?

In the early days, the engine used the
Lua
scripting
language. Lua can be fast thanks to LuaJIT, but creating bindings to an object-oriented
system (by using fallbacks) was complex and slow and took an enormous
amount of code. After some experiments with
Python
,
that also proved difficult to embed.
The main reasons for creating a custom scripting language for Godot were:
Poor threading support in most script VMs, and Godot uses threads
(Lua, Python, Squirrel, JavaScript, ActionScript, etc.).
Poor class-extending support in most script VMs, and adapting to
the way Godot works is highly inefficient (Lua, Python, JavaScript).
Many existing languages have horrible interfaces for binding to C++, resulting in a
large amount of code, bugs, bottlenecks, and general inefficiency (Lua, Python,
Squirrel, JavaScript, etc.). We wanted to focus on a great engine, not a great number
of integrations.
No native vector types (Vector3, Transform3D, etc.), resulting in highly
reduced performance when using custom types (Lua, Python, Squirrel,
JavaScript, ActionScript, etc.).
Garbage collector results in stalls or unnecessarily large memory
usage (Lua, Python, JavaScript, ActionScript, etc.).
Difficulty integrating with the code editor for providing code
completion, live editing, etc. (all of them).
GDScript was designed to curtail the issues above, and more.
Which programming language is fastest?

In most games, the
scripting language
itself is not the cause of performance
problems. Instead, performance is slowed by inefficient algorithms (which are
slow in all languages), by GPU performance, or by the common C++ engine code
like physics or navigation. All languages supported by Godot are fast enough for
general-purpose scripting. You should choose a language based on other factors,
like ease-of-use, familiarity, platform support, or language features.
In general, the performance of C# and GDScript is within the same order of
magnitude, and C++ is faster than both.
Comparing GDScript performance to C# is tricky, since C# can be faster in some
specific cases. The C#
language
itself tends to be faster than GDScript, which
means that C# can be faster in situations with few calls to Godot engine code.
However, C# can be slower than GDScript when making many Godot API calls, due
to the cost of
marshalling
. C#'s performance can also be brought down by garbage
collection which occurs at random and unpredictable moments. This can result in
stuttering issues in complex projects, and is not exclusive to Godot.
C++, using
GDExtension
, will almost always be
faster than either C# or GDScript. However, C++ is less easy to use than C# or
GDScript, and is slower to develop with.
You can also use multiple languages within a single project, with
cross-language scripting
, or by using
GDExtension and scripting languages together. Be aware that doing so comes with
its own complications.
What 3D model formats does Godot support?

You can find detailed information on supported formats, how to export them from
your 3D modeling software, and how to import them for Godot in the
Importing 3D scenes
documentation.
Will [insert closed SDK such as FMOD, GameWorks, etc.] be supported in Godot?

The aim of Godot is to create a free and open source MIT-licensed engine that
is modular and extendable. There are no plans for the core engine development
community to support any third-party, closed-source/proprietary SDKs, as integrating
with these would go against Godot's ethos.
That said, because Godot is open source and modular, nothing prevents you or
anyone else interested in adding those libraries as a module and shipping your
game with them, as either open- or closed-source.
To see how support for your SDK of choice could still be provided, look at the
Plugins question below.
If you know of a third-party SDK that is not supported by Godot but that offers
free and open source integration, consider starting the integration work yourself.
Godot is not owned by one person; it belongs to the community, and it grows along
with ambitious community contributors like you.
How can I extend Godot?

For extending Godot, like creating Godot Editor plugins or adding support
for additional languages, take a look at
EditorPlugins
and tool scripts.
Also, see the official blog post on GDExtension, a way to develop native extensions for Godot:
Introducing GDNative's successor, GDExtension
You can also take a look at the GDScript implementation, the Godot modules,
as well as the
Jolt physics engine integration
for Godot. This would be a good starting point to see how another
third-party library integrates with Godot.
How do I install the Godot editor on my system (for desktop integration)?

Since you don't need to actually install Godot on your system to run it,
this means desktop integration is not performed automatically.
There are two ways to overcome this. You can install Godot from
Steam
(all platforms),
Scoop
(Windows),
Homebrew
(macOS)
or
Flathub
(Linux).
This will automatically perform the required steps for desktop integration.
Alternatively, you can manually perform the steps that an installer would do for you:
Windows

Move the Godot executable to a stable location (i.e. outside of your Downloads folder),
so you don't accidentally move it and break the shortcut in the future.
Right-click the Godot executable and choose
Create Shortcut
.
Move the created shortcut to
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start
Menu\Programs
.
This is the user-wide location for shortcuts that will appear in the Start menu.
You can also pin Godot in the task bar by right-clicking the executable and choosing
Pin to Task Bar
.
macOS

Drag the extracted Godot application to
/Applications/Godot.app
, then drag it
to the Dock if desired. Spotlight will be able to find Godot as long as it's in
/Applications
or
~/Applications
.
Linux

Move the Godot binary to a stable location (i.e. outside of your Downloads folder),
so you don't accidentally move it and break the shortcut in the future.
Rename and move the Godot binary to a location present in your
PATH
environment variable.
This is typically
/usr/local/bin/godot
or
/usr/bin/godot
.
Doing this requires administrator privileges,
but this also allows you to
run the Godot editor from a terminal
by entering
godot
.
If you cannot move the Godot editor binary to a protected location, you can
keep the binary somewhere in your home directory, and modify the
Path=
line in the
.desktop
file linked below to contain the full
absolute
path
to the Godot binary.
Save
this .desktop file
to
$HOME/.local/share/applications/
. If you have administrator privileges,
you can also save the
.desktop
file to
/usr/local/share/applications
to make the shortcut available for all users.
Is the Godot editor a portable application?

In its default configuration, Godot is
semi-portable
. Its executable can run
from any location (including non-writable locations) and never requires
administrator privileges.
However, configuration files will be written to the user-wide configuration or
data directory. This is usually a good approach, but this means configuration files
will not carry across machines if you copy the folder containing the Godot executable.
See
File paths in Godot projects
for more information.
If
true
portable operation is desired (e.g. for use on a USB stick),
follow the steps in
Self-contained mode
.
Why does Godot aim to keep its core feature set small?

Godot intentionally does not include features that can be implemented by add-ons
unless they are used very often. One example of something not used often is
advanced artificial intelligence functionality.
There are several reasons for this:
Code maintenance and surface for bugs.
Every time we accept new code in
the Godot repository, existing contributors often take the responsibility of
maintaining it. Some contributors don't always stick around after getting
their code merged, which can make it difficult for us to maintain the code in
question. This can lead to poorly maintained features with bugs that are never
fixed. On top of that, the "API surface" that needs to be tested and checked
for regressions keeps increasing over time.
Ease of contribution.
By keeping the codebase small and tidy, it can remain
fast and easy to compile from source. This makes it easier for new
contributors to get started with Godot, without requiring them to purchase
high-end hardware.
Keeping the binary size small for the editor.
Not everyone has a fast Internet
connection. Ensuring that everyone can download the Godot editor, extract it
and run it in less than 5 minutes makes Godot more accessible to developers in
all countries.
Keeping the binary size small for export templates.
This directly impacts the
size of projects exported with Godot. On mobile and web platforms, keeping
file sizes low is important to ensure fast installation and loading on
underpowered devices. Again, there are many countries where high-speed
Internet is not readily available. To add to this, strict data usage caps are
often in effect in those countries.
For all the reasons above, we have to be selective of what we can accept as core
functionality in Godot. This is why we are aiming to move some core
functionality to officially supported add-ons in future versions of Godot.
In terms of binary size, this also has the advantage of making you pay only for
what you actually use in your project. (In the meantime, you can
compile custom export templates with unused features disabled
to optimize the distribution size of your project.)
How should assets be created to handle multiple resolutions and aspect ratios?

This question pops up often and it's probably thanks to the misunderstanding
created by Apple when they originally doubled the resolution of their devices.
It made people think that having the same assets in different resolutions was a
good idea, so many continued towards that path. That originally worked to a
point and only for Apple devices, but then several Android and Apple devices
with different resolutions and aspect ratios were created, with a very wide
range of sizes and DPIs.
The most common and proper way to achieve this is to, instead, use a single base
resolution for the game and only handle different screen aspect ratios. This is
mostly needed for 2D, as in 3D, it's just a matter of camera vertical or
horizontal FOV.
Choose a single base resolution for your game. Even if there are
devices that go up to 1440p and devices that go down to 400p, regular
hardware scaling in your device will take care of this at little or
no performance cost. The most common choices are either near 1080p
(1920x1080) or 720p (1280x720). Keep in mind the higher the
resolution, the larger your assets, the more memory they will take
and the longer the time it will take for loading.
Use the stretch options in Godot; canvas items stretching while keeping
aspect ratios works best. Check the
Multiple resolutions
tutorial
on how to achieve this.
Determine a minimum resolution and then decide if you want your game
to stretch vertically or horizontally for different aspect ratios, or
if there is one aspect ratio and you want black bars to appear
instead. This is also explained in
Multiple resolutions
.
For user interfaces, use the
anchoring
to determine where controls should stay and move. If UIs are more
complex, consider learning about Containers.
And that's it! Your game should work in multiple resolutions.
When is the next release of Godot out?

When it's ready! See
When is the next release out?
for more
information.
Which Godot version should I use for a new project?

We recommend using Godot 4.x for new projects, but depending on the feature set
you need, it may be better to use 3.x instead. See
Which version should I use for a new project?
for more information.
Should I upgrade my project to use new Godot versions?

Some new versions are safer to upgrade to than others. In general, whether you
should upgrade depends on your project's circumstances. See
Should I upgrade my project to use new engine versions?
for more information.
Should I use the Forward+, Mobile, or Compatibility renderer?

You can find a detailed comparison of the renderers in
Overview of renderers
.
I would like to contribute! How can I get started?

Awesome! As an open source project, Godot thrives off of the innovation and
the ambition of developers like you.
The best way to start contributing to Godot is by using it and reporting
any
issues
that you might experience.
A good bug report with clear reproduction steps helps your fellow contributors
fix bugs quickly and efficiently. You can also report issues you find in the
online documentation
.
If you feel ready to submit your first PR, pick any issue that resonates with you from
one of the links above and try your hand at fixing it. You will need to learn how to
compile the engine from sources, or how to build the documentation. You also need to
get familiar with Git, a version control system that Godot developers use.
We explain how to work with the engine source, how to edit the documentation, and
what other ways to contribute are there in our
documentation for contributors
.
I have a great idea for Godot. How can I share it?

We are always looking for suggestions about how to improve the engine. User feedback
is the main driving force behind our decision-making process, and limitations that
you might face while working on your project are a great data point for us when considering
engine enhancements.
If you experience a usability problem or are missing a feature in the current version of
Godot, start by discussing it with our
community
.
There may be other, perhaps better, ways to achieve the desired result that community members
could suggest. And you can learn if other users experience the same issue, and figure out
a good solution together.
If you come up with a well-defined idea for the engine, feel free to open a
proposal issue
.
Try to be specific and concrete while describing your problem and your proposed
solution — only actionable proposals can be considered. It is not required, but
if you want to implement it yourself, that's always appreciated!
If you only have a general idea without specific details, you can open a
proposal discussion
.
These can be anything you want, and allow for a free-form discussion in search of
a solution. Once you find one, a proposal issue can be opened.
Please, read the
readme
document before creating a proposal to learn more about the process.
Is it possible to use Godot to create non-game applications?

Yes! Godot features an extensive built-in UI system, and its small distribution
size can make it a suitable alternative to frameworks like Electron or Qt.
See
Creating applications
for more information.
Is it possible to use Godot as a library?

If you are looking to make a game with Godot, keep in mind Godot is designed
to be used with its editor. We recommend you give it a try, as it
will most likely save you time in the long term.
For more specialized applications, it can make sense to look into using
Godot as a library. Since Godot 4.6, there is
experimental
support
for using Godot as a static or shared library in the form of LibGodot.
This is currently supported on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Support for
Android and iOS is planned for a future release.
You can find sample applications that use Godot as a library in the
migeran/libgodot_project GitHub repository
.
What user interface toolkit does Godot use?

Godot does not use a standard
GUI
toolkit
like GTK, Qt or wxWidgets. Instead, Godot uses its own user interface toolkit,
which is always rendered using hardware acceleration. There is no built-in software
fallback, although external solutions that emulate graphics APIs on the CPU can be used.
This toolkit is exposed in the form of Control nodes, which are used to render
the editor (which is written in C++). These Control nodes can also be used in projects
from any scripting language supported by Godot.
This custom toolkit makes it possible to benefit from hardware acceleration and
have a consistent appearance across all platforms. On top of that, it doesn't
have to deal with the LGPL licensing caveats that come with GTK or Qt. Lastly,
this means Godot is "eating its own dog food" since the editor itself is one of
the most complex users of Godot's UI system.
This custom UI toolkit can be
embedded into other applications
(experimental). However, the preferred way to use it is to
use Godot to create non-game applications with the editor
.
Why does Godot use the SCons build system?

Godot uses the
SCons
build system. There are no
plans to switch to a different build system in the near future. There are many
reasons why we have chosen SCons over other alternatives. For example:
Godot can be compiled for a dozen different platforms: all PC
platforms, all mobile platforms, many consoles, and WebAssembly.
Developers often need to compile for several of the platforms
at
the same time
, or even different targets of the same platform. They
can't afford reconfiguring and rebuilding the project each time.
SCons can do this with no sweat, without breaking the builds.
SCons will
never
break a build no matter how many changes,
configurations, additions, removals etc.
Godot's build process is not simple. Several files are generated by
code (binders), others are parsed (shaders), and others need to offer
customization (
modules
). This requires
complex logic which is easier to write in an actual programming language (like Python)
rather than using a mostly macro-based language only meant for building.
Godot's build process makes heavy use of cross-compiling tools. Each
platform has a specific detection process, and all these must be
handled as specific cases with special code written for each.
Please try to keep an open mind and get at least a little familiar with SCons if
you are planning to build Godot yourself.
Why does Godot not use STL (Standard Template Library)?

Like many other libraries (Qt as an example), Godot does not make use of STL
(with a few exceptions such as threading primitives). We believe STL is a great
general-purpose library, but we had special requirements for Godot.
STL templates create very large symbols, which results in huge debug binaries. We use few
templates with very short names instead.
Most of our containers cater to special needs, like Vector, which uses copy on write and we
use to pass data around, or the RID system, which requires O(1) access time for performance.
Likewise, our hash map implementations are designed to integrate seamlessly with internal
engine types.
Our containers have memory tracking built-in, which helps better track memory usage.
For large arrays, we use pooled memory, which can be mapped to either a preallocated buffer
or virtual memory.
We use our custom String type, as the one provided by STL is too basic and lacks proper
internationalization support.
Check out
Godot's container types
for alternatives.
Why does Godot not use exceptions?

We believe games should not crash, no matter what. If an unexpected
situation happens, Godot will print an error (which can be traced even to
script), but then it will try to recover as gracefully as possible and keep
going.
Additionally, exceptions significantly increase the binary size for the
executable and result in increased compile times.
Does Godot use an ECS (Entity Component System)?

Godot does
not
use an ECS and relies on inheritance instead. While there
is no universally better approach, we found that using an inheritance-based approach
resulted in better usability while still being fast enough for most use cases.
That said, nothing prevents you from making use of composition in your project
by creating child Nodes with individual scripts. These nodes can then be added and
removed at runtime to dynamically add and remove behaviors.
More information about Godot's design choices can be found in
this article
.
Why does Godot not force users to implement DOD (Data-Oriented Design)?

While Godot internally attempts to use cache coherency as much as possible,
we believe users don't need to be forced to use DOD practices.
DOD is mostly a cache coherency optimization that can only provide
significant performance improvements when dealing with dozens of
thousands of objects which are processed every frame with little
modification. That is, if you are moving a few hundred sprites or enemies
per frame, DOD won't result in a meaningful improvement in performance. In
such a case, you should consider a different approach to optimization.
The vast majority of games do not need this and Godot provides handy helpers
to do the job for most cases when you do.
If a game needs to process such a large amount of objects, our recommendation
is to use C++ and GDExtensions for performance-heavy tasks and GDScript (or C#)
for the rest of the game.

Classification Response Content

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input Text:** A Markdown file containing an FAQ for Godot Engine 4.6.
   - **Task:** Classify the Markdown into zero or more target tables from a predefined list: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`.
   - **Output Format:** Exactly one JSON array. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.
   - **Rules:** Use `[]` if not useful documentation content. Use one or more valid table names if conversion is needed.

2.  **Evaluate Content against Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: This typically refers to documentation content split into logical chunks for retrieval, indexing, or LLM processing. The input is a standard FAQ page from official documentation (`docs.godotengine.org`). It contains questions and answers, licensing info, platform support, language support, etc. This is clearly useful documentation content.
   - `api_mapping`: This usually refers to mappings between API names, functions, classes, or parameters. The FAQ mentions some APIs/classes (GDScript, C#, C++, GDExtension, Control nodes, Vector, RID, etc.), but it's not primarily an API reference or mapping table.
   - `label_prototypes`: This usually refers to datasets for classification, tagging, or labeling tasks (e.g., question-answer pairs with labels, or prototype labels for ML). The FAQ has a Q&A structure, but it's standard documentation, not explicitly a labeled dataset.

   Given the options, `docs_chunks` is the most appropriate. The content is clearly documentation that would be chunked for a documentation search system or RAG pipeline.

3.  **Determine Output:**
   - The content is useful documentation.
   - It fits `docs_chunks`.
   - Output should be `["docs_chunks"]`.

4.  **Format Output:**
   - JSON array only.
   - `["docs_chunks"]`

   Check constraints: "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
   Matches perfectly.

   Final decision: `["docs_chunks"]`✅
   Proceed. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   Could it be `["docs_chunks", "label_prototypes"]`? The prompt says "zero or more target tables". Usually, FAQ pages are just `docs_chunks`. I'll stick with `["docs_chunks"]`. It's the safest and most accurate.
   Output matches requirement.✅
   Generate. 
   `[ "docs_chunks" ]` (without spaces if preferred, but standard JSON is fine)
   I will output exactly `["docs_chunks"]`. 
   All constraints met.✅
   Proceeds.

   `["docs_chunks"]`
   *(Self-Correction/Verification during generation prep)*: 
   The prompt says "Classify this Markdown into zero or more target tables." The table names are just strings. I will output `["docs_chunks"]`.

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input Text:** A Markdown file from Godot Engine documentation (`pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md`).
   - **Content:** Introduction to Godot Engine, code snippets (GDScript/C#), overview of the engine, documentation organization, licensing, community info.
   - **Task:** Classify into zero or more target tables: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`.
   - **Output Format:** Exactly one JSON array. Valid values are the table names. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.
   - **Rules:** Use `[]` if not useful documentation content. Use one or more valid table names when conversion is needed.

2.  **Evaluate Content against Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: This table typically stores chunks of documentation content (articles, guides, reference pages). The input is clearly a documentation page ("Introduction" from Godot docs). It contains headings, paragraphs, code blocks, and links. Highly suitable for `docs_chunks`.
   - `api_mapping`: This table typically maps API classes/methods to documentation or defines API structures. The input mentions "Class reference" and shows a `_Ready` function snippet, but it's primarily an introductory overview page, not a detailed API mapping or reference table. It could potentially be included if it maps to API docs, but `docs_chunks` is the primary fit. I'll stick with `docs_chunks` as the main classification. Sometimes introductory pages are just `docs_chunks`.
   - `label_prototypes`: This table typically stores UI/UX labels, button texts, or prototype definitions. Not present here.

   Conclusion: The content is standard documentation. It fits `docs_chunks`.

3.  **Format Output:**
   - Must be exactly one JSON array.
   - Valid values: `["docs_chunks"]`
   - No markdown fences, no extra text.

   Check rules: "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
   Output: `["docs_chunks"]`

   Double-check: Is there any reason to include `api_mapping`? The snippet shows `_Ready` but it's just a code comparison block in an intro page. Not a mapping. `docs_chunks` is sufficient.
   The prompt says "Classify this Markdown into zero or more target tables."
   I will output `["docs_chunks"]`.

   All constraints met. Proceed. 
   Output matches exactly.✅
   Note: I'll make sure there's no markdown formatting like ```json ... ``` around it. Just the raw JSON string.
   `["docs_chunks"]` is correct. 
   Ready. 
   Output Generation. 
   `[ "docs_chunks" ]` (or without spaces, doesn't matter, but standard JSON is fine)
   I will output `["docs_chunks"]`. 
   Self-Correction/Verification during thought: 
   Could it be `[]`? No, it's clearly useful documentation content.
   Could it be `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`? The intro page mentions the Class Reference, but doesn't map APIs itself. `docs_chunks` is the standard classification for this type of page.
   I'll stick with `["docs_chunks"]`.
   Output matches requirement.✅
   Proceeds. 
   `[ "docs_chunks" ]` -> `["docs_chunks"]` (compact)
   Done. 
   Output Generation. 
   `["docs_chunks"]`
   *(Self-Correction/Refinement during thought)*: Wait, the prompt says "Return exactly one JSON array. Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]". It implies the array should contain the table names. So `["docs_chunks"]` is correct.
   All good. 
   Output matches. 
   `[ "docs_chunks" ]` -> `["docs_chunks"]`
   Proceeds. 
   [Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]`
   *(Final Check)*: The prompt says "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
   I will output exactly `["docs_chunks"]`.
   Done. 
   [Output] `["docs_chunks"]`
   *(Note: I'll make sure there are no newlines or spaces that could break strict JSON parsing, though standard JSON allows whitespace.)*
   `["docs_chunks"]` is perfect. 
   Proceeds. 
   [Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]`

Classification Response Content

["docs_chunks"]

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input Text:** A Markdown file containing a list of features for Godot Engine 4.6. It covers platforms, editor, rendering, 2D/3D graphics, physics, shaders, scripting, audio, import, input, navigation, networking, i18n, windowing, mobile, XR, GUI, animation, file formats, and miscellaneous features.
   - **Task:** Classify the Markdown into zero or more target tables from the list: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`.
   - **Output Format:** Exactly one JSON array. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.
   - **Rules:** Use `[]` if not useful documentation content. Use one or more valid table names when conversion is needed.

2.  **Evaluate Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: Typically refers to documentation content split into logical chunks/sections. This file is clearly a documentation page listing features. It fits perfectly.
   - `api_mapping`: Usually maps API endpoints, functions, or classes to descriptions/parameters. This file lists features, not specific API endpoints or function signatures. It's more of a feature list/documentation overview.
   - `label_prototypes`: Usually refers to datasets for labeling tasks, or prototypes of labels/categories. This doesn't seem to fit a feature list documentation page.

   Given the content, it's standard documentation. `docs_chunks` is the most appropriate.

3.  **Determine Output:**
   - The content is highly useful documentation content.
   - It should be classified as `["docs_chunks"]`.
   - Check constraints: "Return exactly one JSON array. Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]"
   - Output should be just `["docs_chunks"]`.

4.  **Final Verification:**
   - Content: Godot Engine feature list documentation.
   - Matches `docs_chunks`? Yes.
   - JSON format? Yes.
   - No extra text? Yes.
   - Ready.✅
   - Output: `["docs_chunks"]`
   - Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: Could it be `api_mapping`? It mentions nodes like `TileMap`, `Path2D`, `HTTPRequest`, etc., but it's a high-level feature list, not an API reference mapping. `docs_chunks` is definitely the best fit. The prompt says "Classify this Markdown into zero or more target tables." I will output `["docs_chunks"]`.
   - All constraints met. Proceed. 
   - Output matches exactly.✅
   - Generate. 
   - `[ "docs_chunks" ]` (without spaces if preferred, but standard JSON is fine) -> `["docs_chunks"]`
   - Done. 
   - Output Generation. 
   - `["docs_chunks"]`
   - Check format: "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
   - Result: `["docs_chunks"]`✅
   - Proceeds. 
   - [Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]`
   - All good. 
   - *Self-Correction/Verification during generation*: Wait, the prompt says "target tables". Sometimes these refer to specific database tables in a RAG pipeline. `docs_chunks` is standard for documentation. I'll stick with `["docs_chunks"]`.
   - Final Answer: `["docs_chunks"]`✅
   - Output matches request.✅
   - Proceeds. 
   - `[ "docs_chunks" ]` -> `["docs_chunks"]` (JSON array)
   - Done. 
   - Output Generation. 
   - `["docs_chunks"]`

Godot release policy
Edit on GitHub
Learn how to contribute!
Godot release policy

Godot's release policy is in constant evolution. The description below
provides a general idea of what to expect, but what will actually
happen depends on the choices of core contributors and the needs of the
community at a given time.
Godot versioning

Godot loosely follows
Semantic Versioning
with a
major.minor.patch
versioning system, albeit with an interpretation of each
term adapted to the complexity of a game engine:
The
major
version is incremented when major compatibility breakages happen
which imply significant porting work to move projects from one major version
to another.
For example, porting Godot projects from Godot 3.x to Godot 4.x requires
running the project through a conversion tool, and then performing a number
of further adjustments manually for what the tool could not do automatically.
The
minor
version is incremented for feature releases that do not break
compatibility in a major way. Minor compatibility breakage in very specific
areas
may
happen in minor versions, but the vast majority of projects
should not be affected or require significant porting work.
This is because Godot, as a game engine, covers many areas like rendering,
physics, and scripting. Fixing bugs or implementing new features in one area
might sometimes require changing a feature's behavior or modifying a class's
interface, even if the rest of the engine API remains backwards compatible.
Tip
Upgrading to a new minor version is recommended for all users,
but some testing is necessary to ensure that your project still behaves as
expected.
The
patch
version is incremented for maintenance releases which focus on
fixing bugs and security issues, implementing new requirements for platform
support, and backporting safe usability enhancements. Patch releases are
backwards compatible.
Patch versions may include minor new features which do not impact the
existing API, and thus have no risk of impacting existing projects.
Tip
Updating to new patch versions is therefore considered safe and strongly
recommended to all users of a given stable branch.
We call
major.minor
combinations
stable branches
. Each stable branch
starts with a
major.minor
release (without the
0
for
patch
) and is
further developed for maintenance releases in a Git branch of the same name
(for example patch updates for the 4.0 stable branch are developed in the
4.0
Git branch).
Release support timeline

Stable branches are supported
at least
until the next stable branch is
released and has received its first patch update. In practice, we support
stable branches on a
best effort
basis for as long as they have active users
who need maintenance updates.
Whenever a new major version is released, we make the previous stable branch a
long-term supported release, and do our best to provide fixes for issues
encountered by users of that branch who cannot port complex projects to the new
major version. This was the case for the 2.1 branch, and is the case for the
3.x branch.
In a given minor release series, only the latest patch release receives support.
If you experience an issue using an older patch release, please upgrade to the
latest patch release of that series and test again before reporting an issue
on GitHub.

See
Upgrading from Godot 3 to Godot 4
for instructions on migrating a project
from Godot 3.x to 4.x.
Which version should I use for a new project?

We recommend using Godot 4.x for new projects, as the Godot 4.x series will be
supported long after 3.x stops receiving updates in the future. One caveat is
that a lot of third-party documentation hasn't been updated for Godot 4.x yet.
If you have to follow a tutorial designed for Godot 3.x, we recommend keeping
Upgrading from Godot 3 to Godot 4
open in a separate tab to check which methods
have been renamed (if you get a script error while trying to use a specific node
or method that was renamed in Godot 4.x).
If your project requires a feature that is missing in 4.x (such as GLES2/WebGL
1.0), you should use Godot 3.x for a new project instead.
Should I upgrade my project to use new engine versions?

Note
Upgrading software while working on a project is inherently risky, so
consider whether it's a good idea for your project before attempting an
upgrade. Also, make backups of your project or use version control to
prevent losing data in case the upgrade goes wrong.
That said, we do our best to keep minor and especially patch releases
compatible with existing projects.
The general recommendation is to upgrade your project to follow new
patch
releases, such as upgrading from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3. This ensures you get bug fixes,
security updates and platform support updates (which is especially important for
mobile platforms). You also get continued support, as only the last patch
release receives support on official community platforms.
For
minor
releases, you should determine whether it's a good idea to upgrade
on a case-by-case basis. We've made a lot of effort in making the upgrade
process as seamless as possible, but some breaking changes may be present in
minor releases, along with a greater risk of regressions. Some fixes included in
minor releases may also change a class' expected behavior as required to fix
some bugs. This is especially the case in classes marked as
experimental
in
the documentation.
Major
releases bring a lot of new functionality, but they also remove
previously existing functionality and may raise hardware requirements. They also
require much more work to upgrade to compared to minor releases. As a result, we
recommend sticking with the major release you've started your project with if
you are happy with how your project currently works. For example, if your
project was started with 3.5, we recommend upgrading to 3.5.2 and possibly 3.6
in the future, but not to 4.0+, unless your project really needs the new
features that come with 4.0+.
When is the next release out?

While Godot contributors aren't working under any deadlines, we strive to
publish minor releases relatively frequently.
In particular, after the very long release cycle for 4.0, we are pivoting to
a faster-paced development workflow, 4.1 released 4 months after 4.0, and 4.2
released 4 months after 4.1.
Frequent minor releases will enable us to ship new features faster (possibly
as experimental), get user feedback quickly, and iterate to improve those
features and their usability. Likewise, the general user experience will be
improved more steadily with a faster path to the end users.
Maintenance (patch) releases are released as needed with potentially very
short development cycles, to provide users of the current stable branch with
the latest bug fixes for their production needs.
There is currently no planned release date for the next 3.x minor version, 3.7.
The current stable release, 3.6, may be the last stable branch of Godot 3.x.
Godot 3.x is supported on a best-effort basis, as long as contributors continue
to maintain it.
What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?

Note
This section is intended to be used by contributors to determine which
changes are safe for a given release. The list is not exhaustive; it only
outlines the most common situations encountered during Godot's development.
The following changes are acceptable in patch releases:
Fixing a bug in a way that has no major negative impact on most projects, such
as a visual or physics bug. Godot's physics engine is not deterministic, so
physics bug fixes are not considered to break compatibility. If fixing a bug
has a negative impact that could impact a lot of projects, it should be made
optional (e.g. using a project setting or separate method).
Adding a new optional parameter to a method.
Small-scale editor usability tweaks.
Note that we tend to be more conservative with the fixes we allow in each
subsequent patch release. For instance, 4.0.1 may receive more impactful fixes
than 4.0.4 would.
The following changes are acceptable in minor releases, but not patch releases:
Significant new features.
Renaming a method parameter. In C#, method parameters can be passed by name
(but not in GDScript). As a result, this can break some projects that use C#.
Deprecating a method, member variable, or class. This is done by adding a
deprecated flag to its class reference, which will show up in the editor. When
a method is marked as deprecated, it's slated to be removed in the next
major
release.
Changes that affect the default project theme's visuals.
Bug fixes which significantly change the behavior or the output, with the aim
to meet user expectations better. In comparison, in patch releases, we may
favor keeping a buggy behavior so we don't break existing projects which
likely already rely on the bug or use a workaround.
Performance optimizations that result in visual changes.
The following changes are considered
compatibility-breaking
and can only be
performed in a new major release:
Renaming or removing a method, member variable, or class.
Modifying a node's inheritance tree by making it inherit from a different class.
Changing the default value of a project setting value in a way that affects existing
projects. To only affect new projects, the project manager should write a
modified
project.godot
instead.
Since Godot 5.0 hasn't been branched off yet, we currently discourage making
compatibility-breaking changes of this kind.
Note
When modifying a method's signature in any fashion (including adding an
optional parameter), a GDExtension compatibility method must be created.
This ensures that existing GDExtensions continue to work across patch and
minor releases, so that users don't have to recompile them.
See
Handling compatibility breakages
for more information.

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input Text:** A Markdown file about Godot Engine's release policy.
   - **Task:** Classify the Markdown into zero or more target tables from a predefined list: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`.
   - **Output Format:** Exactly one JSON array. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.
   - **Rules:** Use `[]` if not useful documentation content. Use one or more valid table names if conversion is needed.

2.  **Evaluate Content against Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: Typically refers to documentation content that can be chunked for retrieval, FAQs, guides, release notes, policies, etc. This file is clearly a documentation page about the release policy, versioning, support timeline, and upgrade recommendations. It fits perfectly as documentation content.
   - `api_mapping`: Usually maps API names, functions, classes, or parameters to descriptions or implementations. This file mentions API concepts (methods, classes, parameters) but isn't an API mapping table itself.
   - `label_prototypes`: Usually refers to UI/UX labels, button text, or prototype definitions. Not applicable here.

   Conclusion: The content is clearly documentation. It should be classified as `["docs_chunks"]`.

3.  **Format Output:**
   - Must be exactly one JSON array.
   - Valid values: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`
   - Result: `["docs_chunks"]`

4.  **Final Check:**
   - Does it match the rules? Yes.
   - Is it valid JSON? Yes.
   - No markdown fences? Yes.
   - No extra text? Yes.
   - Output matches requirement. Proceed. 
   - Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: The prompt says "Classify this Markdown into zero or more target tables." and gives valid values. The content is definitely documentation. So `["docs_chunks"]` is correct. I will output just that.✅
   - Output generation. 
   - `["docs_chunks"]` matches all constraints.✅
   - Proceed. 
   - Output: `["docs_chunks"]` (as raw JSON)
   - Check format: "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text." -> `["docs_chunks"]` is perfect. 
   - Done. 
   - Output Generation. 
   - `[ "docs_chunks" ]` (without spaces is fine too) -> `["docs_chunks"]`
   - All good. 
   - Proceeds. 
   - [Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]`
   - [Final Check of the Prompt] "Classify this Markdown into zero or more target tables. Return exactly one JSON array. Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]" -> Matches.
   - Ready. 
   - Output matches exactly.✅
   - *Self-Correction/Verification during thought*: Wait, is there any chance it's `["docs_chunks"]`? Yes. The content is a standard documentation page. It contains text, headings, tips, and a table of versions. It's clearly for documentation chunking.
   - Final Output: `["docs_chunks"]`
   - Proceeds. 
   - [Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]` (raw string)
   - Done.

Exported Godot project

Warning
The requirements below are a baseline for a
simple
2D or 3D project,
with basic scripting and few visual flourishes. CPU, GPU, RAM and
storage requirements will heavily vary depending on your project's scope,
its renderer, viewport resolution and graphics settings chosen.
Other programs running on the system while the project is running
will also compete for resources, including RAM and video RAM.
It is strongly recommended to do your own testing on low-end hardware to
make sure your project runs at the desired speed. To provide scalability for
low-end hardware, you will also need to introduce a
graphics options menu
to your project.
These are the
minimum
specifications required to run a simple 2D or 3D

Classification Response Content

["docs_chunks"]

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Input File:** `pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md`
   - **Content:** A Markdown document detailing system requirements for the Godot Engine 4.6 editor and exported projects. It covers minimum and recommended specs for Desktop/Laptop PC and Mobile devices, broken down by CPU, GPU, RAM, Storage, and OS.
   - **Task:** Classify into zero or more target tables: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]`
   - **Output Format:** Exactly one JSON array. No markdown, no prose, no thinking text.

2.  **Understand Target Tables:**
   - `docs_chunks`: Typically for documentation content, articles, guides, reference pages. This file is clearly a documentation page about system requirements.
   - `api_mapping`: Typically for API references, function signatures, class/method mappings. Not applicable here.
   - `label_prototypes`: Typically for UI/UX labels, button text, form fields, or specific prototype definitions. Not applicable here.

3.  **Evaluate Content against Target Tables:**
   - The content is a standard documentation page (`System requirements` for Godot Engine).
   - It fits perfectly into `docs_chunks`.
   - It does not contain API mappings or label prototypes.

4.  **Determine Output:**
   - Since it's useful documentation content, I should return `["docs_chunks"]`.
   - Check rules: "Use [] only if the file is not useful documentation content." -> It is useful.
   - "Use one or more valid table names when conversion is needed." -> `docs_chunks` is needed.
   - Format: JSON array only.

5.  **Construct JSON:**
   `["docs_chunks"]`

   Double-check constraints: "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
   Output matches exactly.✅
   Proceed. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   Could it be `["docs_chunks"]`? Yes.
   Is there any chance it fits `api_mapping` or `label_prototypes`? No.
   Final answer: `["docs_chunks"]`
   Output matches requirement.✅
   Generate. 
   [Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks"]` (as raw JSON)
   All constraints met.✅
   Proceeds. 
   [Final Check of the Prompt] "Classify this Markdown into zero or more target tables. Return exactly one JSON array. Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]"
   Result: `["docs_chunks"]` -> Correct. 
   Output matches.✅
   Done. 
   [Output Generation] (Proceeds)
   `["docs_chunks"]`
   (Note: I will ensure no markdown formatting like backticks surrounds it, as per "No markdown.")
   Ready. 
   [Output] `["docs_chunks"]`
   *(Self-Correction/Verification during generation)*: The prompt says "No markdown." so I will output just the raw string `["docs_chunks"]`.
   All good. 
   Proceeds.

PI
=
3.14159265358979
🔗
Constant that represents how many times the diameter of a circle fits around its perimeter. This is equivalent to
TAU
/
2
, or 180 degrees in rotations.
TAU
=
6.28318530717959
🔗
The circle constant, the circumference of the unit circle in radians. This is equivalent to
PI
*
2
, or 360 degrees in rotations.
INF
=
inf
🔗
Positive floating-point infinity. This is the result of floating-point division when the divisor is
0.0
. For negative infinity, use
-INF
. Dividing by
-0.0
will result in negative infinity if the numerator is positive, so dividing by
0.0
is not the same as dividing by
-0.0
(despite
0.0
==
-0.0
returning
true
).
Warning:
Numeric infinity is only a concept with floating-point numbers, and has no equivalent for integers. Dividing an integer number by
0
will not result in
INF
and will result in a run-time error instead.
NAN
=
nan
🔗
"Not a Number", an invalid floating-point value. It is returned by some invalid operations, such as dividing floating-point
0.0
by
0.0
.
NAN
has special properties, including that
!=
always returns
true
, while other comparison operators always return
false
. This is true even when comparing with itself (
NAN
==
NAN
returns
false
and
NAN
!=
NAN
returns
true
). Due to this, you must use
@GlobalScope.is_nan()
to check whether a number is equal to
NAN
.
Warning:
"Not a Number" is only a concept with floating-point numbers, and has no equivalent for integers. Dividing an integer
0
by
0
will not result in
NAN
and will result in a run-time error instead.
Annotations

@abstract
()
🔗
Marks a class or a method as abstract.
An abstract class is a class that cannot be instantiated directly. Instead, it is meant to be inherited by other classes. Attempting to instantiate an abstract class will result in an error.
An abstract method is a method that has no implementation. Therefore, a newline or a semicolon is expected after the function header. This defines a contract that inheriting classes must conform to, because the method signature must be compatible when overriding.
Inheriting classes must either provide implementations for all abstract methods, or the inheriting class must be marked as abstract. If a class has at least one abstract method (either its own or an unimplemented inherited one), then it must also be marked as abstract. However, the reverse is not true: an abstract class is allowed to have no abstract methods.

[
int
],
Array
[
float
],
PackedByteArray
,
PackedInt32Array
,
PackedInt64Array
,
PackedFloat32Array
, or
PackedFloat64Array
property as a range value. The range must be defined by
min
and
max
, as well as an optional
step
and a variety of extra hints. The
step
defaults to
1
for integer properties. For floating-point numbers this value depends on your
EditorSettings.interface/inspector/default_float_step
setting.
If hints
"or_greater"
and
"or_less"
are provided, the editor widget will not cap the value at range boundaries. The
"exp"
hint will make the edited values on range to change exponentially. The
"prefer_slider"
hint will make integer values use the slider instead of arrows for editing, while
"hide_control"
will hide the element controlling the value of the editor widget.
Hints also allow to indicate the units for the edited value. Using
"radians_as_degrees"
you can specify that the actual value is in radians, but should be displayed in degrees in the Inspector dock (the range values are also in degrees).
"degrees"
allows to add a degree sign as a unit suffix (the value is unchanged). Finally, a custom suffix can be provided using
"suffix:unit"
, where "unit" can be any string.

🔗
Export a
Callable
property as a clickable button with the label
text
. When the button is pressed, the callable is called.
If
icon
is specified, it is used to fetch an icon for the button via
Control.get_theme_icon()
, from the
"EditorIcons"
theme type. If
icon
is omitted, the default
"Callable"
icon is used instead.
Consider using the
EditorUndoRedoManager
to allow the action to be reverted safely.

Copy to clipboard
Note:
The property is exported without the
@GlobalScope.PROPERTY_USAGE_STORAGE
flag because a
Callable
cannot be properly serialized and stored in a file.
Note:
In an exported project neither
EditorInterface
nor
EditorUndoRedoManager
exist, which may cause some scripts to break. To prevent this, you can use
Engine.get_singleton()
and omit the static type from the variable declaration:
var
undo_redo
=
Engine
.
get_singleton
(
&"EditorInterface"
)
.
get_editor_undo_redo
()
Copy to clipboard
Note:
Avoid storing lambda callables in member variables of
RefCounted
-based classes (e.g. resources), as this can lead to memory leaks. Use only method callables and optionally
Callable.bind()
or
Callable.unbind()
.
@icon
(icon_path:
String
)
🔗
Add a custom icon to the current script. The icon specified at
icon_path
is displayed in the Scene dock for every node of that class, as well as in various editor dialogs.
@icon
(
"res://path/to/class/icon.svg"
)
Copy to clipboard
Note:
Only the script can have a custom icon. Inner classes are not supported.
Note:
As annotations describe their subject, the
@icon
annotation must be placed before the class definition and inheritance.
Note:
Unlike most other annotations, the argument of the
@icon
annotation must be a string literal (constant expressions are not supported).
@onready
()
🔗
Mark the following property as assigned when the
Node
is ready. Values for these properties are not assigned immediately when the node is initialized (
Object._init()
), and instead are computed and stored right before
Node._ready()
.
@onready
var

@rpc
(mode:
String
= "authority", sync:
String
= "call_remote", transfer_mode:
String
= "reliable", transfer_channel:
int
= 0)
🔗
Mark the following method for remote procedure calls. See
High-level multiplayer
.
If
mode
is set as
"any_peer"
, allows any peer to call this RPC function. Otherwise, only the authority peer is allowed to call it and
mode
should be kept as
"authority"
. When configuring functions as RPCs with
Node.rpc_config()
, each of these modes respectively corresponds to the
MultiplayerAPI.RPC_MODE_AUTHORITY
and
MultiplayerAPI.RPC_MODE_ANY_PEER
RPC modes. See
RPCMode
. If a peer that is not the authority tries to call a function that is only allowed for the authority, the function will not be executed. If the error can be detected locally (when the RPC configuration is consistent between the local and the remote peer), an error message will be displayed on the sender peer. Otherwise, the remote peer will detect the error and print an error there.
If
sync
is set as
"call_remote"
, the function will only be executed on the remote peer, but not locally. To run this function locally too, set
sync
to
"call_local"
. When configuring functions as RPCs with
Node.rpc_config()
, this is equivalent to setting
call_local
to
true
.
The
transfer_mode
accepted values are
"unreliable"
,
"unreliable_ordered"
, or
"reliable"
. It sets the transfer mode of the underlying
MultiplayerPeer
. See
MultiplayerPeer.transfer_mode
.
The
transfer_channel
defines the channel of the underlying
MultiplayerPeer
. See
MultiplayerPeer.transfer_channel
.
The order of
mode
,
sync
and
transfer_mode
does not matter, but values related to the same argument must not be used more than once.
transfer_channel
always has to be the 4th argument (you must specify 3 preceding arguments).

@static_unload
()
🔗
Make a script with static variables to not persist after all references are lost. If the script is loaded again the static variables will revert to their default values.
Note:
As annotations describe their subject, the
@static_unload
annotation must be placed before the class definition and inheritance.
Warning:
Currently, due to a bug, scripts are never freed, even if
@static_unload
annotation is used.

@warning_ignore_start
. Ignoring the specified warning types will be reset to Project Settings. This annotation can be omitted to ignore the warning types until the end of the file.
Note:
Unlike most other annotations, arguments of the
@warning_ignore_restore
annotation must be string literals (constant expressions are not supported).
@warning_ignore_start
(warning:
String
, ...)
vararg
🔗
Starts ignoring the listed warning types until the end of the file or the
@warning_ignore_restore
annotation with the given warning type.

Color
Color8
(r8:
int
, g8:
int
, b8:
int
, a8:
int

🔗
Deprecated:
Use
Color.from_rgba8()
instead.
Returns a
Color
constructed from red (
r8
), green (
g8
), blue (
b8
), and optionally alpha (
a8
) integer channels, each divided by
255.0
for their final value. Using
Color8()
instead of the standard
Color
constructor is useful when you need to match exact color values in an
Image
.
var
red
=
Color8
(
255
,
0
,
0
)
# Same as Color(1, 0, 0).
var

# Same as Color(1.2, 1, 0, 0.4).
Copy to clipboard
Note:
Due to the lower precision of
Color8()
compared to the standard
Color
constructor, a color created with
Color8()
will generally not be equal to the same color created with the standard
Color
constructor. Use
Color.is_equal_approx()
for comparisons to avoid issues with floating-point precision error.
void
assert
(condition:
bool
, message:
String
= "")
🔗
Asserts that the
condition
is
true
. If the
condition
is
false
, an error is generated. When running from the editor, the running project will also be paused until you resume it. This can be used as a stronger form of
@GlobalScope.push_error()
for reporting errors to project developers or add-on users.
An optional
message
can be shown in addition to the generic "Assertion failed" message. You can use this to provide additional details about why the assertion failed.
Warning:
For performance reasons, the code inside
assert()
is only executed in debug builds or when running the project from the editor. Don't include code that has side effects in an
assert()
call. Otherwise, the project will behave differently when exported in release mode.
# Imagine we always want speed to be between 0 and 20.
var
speed
=
-
10
assert
(
speed
<
20
)
# True, the program will continue.
assert
(
speed

0
)
# False, the program will stop.
assert
(
speed

0
and
speed

# You can also combine the two conditional statements in one check.
assert
(
speed
<
20
,
"the speed limit is 20"
)
# Show a message.
Copy to clipboard
Note:
assert()
is a keyword, not a function. So you cannot access it as a
Callable
or use it inside expressions.
String
char
(code:
int
)
🔗
Returns a single character (as a

of length 1) of the given Unicode code point
code
.
print

# Prints "A"
print
(
char

ProjectSettings.debug/settings/gdscript/always_track_call_stacks
.
Dictionary
inst_to_dict
(instance:
Object
)
🔗
Deprecated:
Consider using
JSON.from_native()
or
Object.get_property_list()
instead.
Returns the passed

converted to a
Dictionary
. Can be useful for serializing.

Copy to clipboard
Note:
This function can only be used to serialize objects with an attached
GDScript
stored in a separate file. Objects without an attached script, with a script written in another language, or with a built-in script are not supported.
Note:
This function is not recursive, which means that nested objects will not be represented as dictionaries. Also, properties passed by reference (
Object
,
Dictionary
,
Array
, and packed arrays) are copied by reference, not duplicated.
bool
is_instance_of
(value:
Variant
, type:
Variant
)
🔗
Returns
true
if
value
is an instance of
type
. The
type
value must be one of the following:
A constant from the
Variant.Type
enumeration, for example
@GlobalScope.TYPE_INT
.
An
Object
-derived class which exists in
ClassDB
, for example
Node
.
A
Script
(you can use any class, including inner one).
Unlike the right operand of the
is
operator,
type
can be a non-constant value. The
is
operator supports more features (such as typed arrays). Use the operator instead of this method if you do not need to check the type dynamically.
Examples:
print
(
is_instance_of
(
a
,
TYPE_INT
))
print
(
is_instance_of
(
a
,
Node
))
print
(
is_instance_of
(
a
,
MyClass
))
print
(
is_instance_of
(
a
,
MyClass
.
InnerClass
))
Copy to clipboard
Note:
If
value
and/or
type
are freed objects (see
@GlobalScope.is_instance_valid()
), or
type
is not one of the above options, this method will raise a runtime error.
See also
@GlobalScope.typeof()
,
type_exists()
,
Array.is_same_typed()
(and other
Array
methods).
int
len
(var:
Variant
)
🔗
Returns the length of the given Variant
var
. The length can be the character count of a
String
or
StringName
, the element count of any array type, or the size of a
Dictionary
. For every other Variant type, a run-time error is generated and execution is stopped.

Resource
load
(path:
String
)
🔗
Returns a
Resource
from the filesystem located at the absolute
path
. Unless it's already referenced elsewhere (such as in another script or in the scene), the resource is loaded from disk on function call, which might cause a slight delay, especially when loading large scenes. To avoid unnecessary delays when loading something multiple times, either store the resource in a variable or use
preload()
. This method is equivalent of using
ResourceLoader.load()
with
ResourceLoader.CACHE_MODE_REUSE
.
Note:
Resource paths can be obtained by right-clicking on a resource in the FileSystem dock and choosing "Copy Path", or by dragging the file from the FileSystem dock into the current script.
# Load a scene called "main" located in the root of the project directory and cache it in a variable.
var
main
=
load
(
"res://main.tscn"
)
# main will contain a PackedScene resource.
Copy to clipboard
Important:
Relative paths are
not
relative to the script calling this method, instead it is prefixed with
"res://"
. Loading from relative paths might not work as expected.
This function is a simplified version of
ResourceLoader.load()
, which can be used for more advanced scenarios.
Note:
Files have to be imported into the engine first to load them using this function. If you want to load
Image
s at run-time, you may use
Image.load()
. If you want to import audio files, you can use the snippet described in
AudioStreamMP3.data
.
Note:
If
ProjectSettings.editor/export/convert_text_resources_to_binary
is
true
,
load()
will not be able to read converted files in an exported project. If you rely on run-time loading of files present within the PCK, set
ProjectSettings.editor/export/convert_text_resources_to_binary
to
false
.
int
ord
(char:
String
)
🔗
Returns an integer representing the Unicode code point of the given character
char
, which should be a string of length 1.
print
(
ord
(
"A"
))
# Prints 65
print
(
ord
(
"🤖"
))
# Prints 129302
Copy to clipboard
This is the inverse of
char()
. See also
String.chr()
and
String.unicode_at()
.
Resource
preload
(path:
String
)
🔗
Returns a
Resource
from the filesystem located at
path
. During run-time, the resource is loaded when the script is being parsed. This function effectively acts as a reference to that resource. Note that this function requires
path
to be a constant
String
. If you want to load a resource from a dynamic/variable path, use
load()
.
Note:
Resource paths can be obtained by right-clicking on a resource in the Assets Panel and choosing "Copy Path", or by dragging the file from the FileSystem dock into the current script.
# Create instance of a scene.
var
diamond
=
preload

vararg
🔗
Returns an array with the given range.
range()
can be called in three ways:
range(n:
int)
: Starts from 0, increases by steps of 1, and stops
before
n
. The argument
n
is
exclusive
.
range(b:
int,
n:

: Starts from
b
, increases by steps of 1, and stops
before
n
. The arguments
b
and
n
are
inclusive
and
exclusive
, respectively.
range(b:
int,
n:
int,
s:
int)
: Starts from
b
, increases/decreases by steps of
s
, and stops
before
n
. The arguments
b
and
n
are
inclusive
and
exclusive
, respectively. The argument
s
can
be negative, but not
0
. If
s
is
0
, an error message is printed.
range()
converts all arguments to

before processing.
Note:
Returns an empty array if no value meets the value constraint (e.g.
range(2,
5,
-1)
or
range(5,
5,
1)
).
Examples:
print
(

Classification Response Content

["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]

Klassifizierungsantwort‑Begründungsinhalt

The user wants to classify the provided Markdown file into one or more target tables: "docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes".
The file is a Godot Engine documentation page for the `@GDScript` class.
It contains:
- Description
- Tutorials
- Methods (list of methods with signatures)
- Constants (PI, TAU, INF, NAN)
- Annotations (many `@export_*`, `@tool`, `@rpc`, etc.)
- Method Descriptions (detailed descriptions for each method)

This is clearly documentation content. It describes API methods, constants, and annotations for the `@GDScript` class.
Therefore, it should be classified as "docs_chunks" and "api_mapping".
Wait, the prompt says: "Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]"
Rules:
- Use [] only if the file is not useful documentation content.
- Use one or more valid table names when conversion is needed.
- Do not include explanations, markdown fences, or any text outside JSON.

Is it "docs_chunks"? Yes, it's a chunk of documentation.
Is it "api_mapping"? Yes, it maps API methods/constants/annotations to their descriptions.
I will output `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`.

Let's double check the exact format. "Return exactly one JSON array."
So `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]` is correct.
No other text.
Done. 
Wait, should I include "label_prototypes"? Probably not, it's not about labels.
I'll stick with `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`.
Checking rules: "Use one or more valid table names when conversion is needed."
The file is documentation, so it fits.
Output matches requirement.
Proceed. 
One minor point: sometimes these tasks expect just `["docs_chunks"]` or `["api_mapping"]`. Given it's a class reference page with methods and constants, `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]` is safe. I'll output exactly that.
Actually, the prompt says "Classify this Markdown into zero or more target tables."
I will return `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`.
Done. 
Let's generate. 
Output: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Wait, is there any chance it's just `["docs_chunks"]`? The prompt says "Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]". I'll provide both as it contains API mapping info.
I'll just output `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`.
Done. 
Final check of the prompt: "Return exactly one JSON array. Valid values are: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping", "label_prototypes"]"
All good. 
Proceeds. 
Output matches. 
[Done] 
`["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Wait, let's think if "api_mapping" is appropriate. It maps method names to descriptions. Yes.
I will output `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`.
No extra text.
Ready. 
Output Generation. 
`["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
(Self-Correction/Refinement during thought)
Sometimes these classification tasks are strict. I'll just output `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`. It's safe.
Actually, looking at similar tasks, `["docs_chunks"]` is often enough for documentation pages, but `api_mapping` is for API references. This is an API reference page. I'll stick with both.
Final: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Proceeds. 
Output matches requirement.
Done. 
[Output Generation] -> `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Wait, the prompt says "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No prose. No thinking text."
I will output exactly `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`.
Done. 
(Self-Correction/Verification)
Could it be just `["docs_chunks"]`? The prompt says "Use one or more valid table names when conversion is needed." I'll provide both. It's fine.
Final Answer: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Proceeds. 
[Output] `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Done. 
(Note: I'll make sure there are no backticks or markdown formatting around the JSON as requested: "No markdown.")
Result: `["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Done. 
[Final Check]
File content: Godot Engine 4.6 documentation for @GDScript class. Contains methods, constants, annotations, descriptions.
Tables: docs_chunks, api_mapping, label_prototypes.
Classification: docs_chunks, api_mapping.
JSON: ["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]
Matches rules.
Proceeds. 
Output Generation. 
`["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
Done. 
[Final Output Generation] (matches exactly)
`["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]`
(No extra spaces or newlines)
Done. 
[Output]
["docs_chunks", "api_mapping"]

Warning
The recommendations in this page
are not legal advice.
They are provided
in good faith to help users navigate license attribution requirements.
What are licenses?

Godot is created and distributed under the
MIT License
.
It doesn't have a sole owner, as every contributor that submits code to
the project does it under this same license and keeps ownership of their
contribution.
The license is the legal requirement for you (or your company) to use and
distribute the software (and derivative projects, including games made with it).
Your game or project can have a different license, but it still needs to comply
with the original one.
Note
This section covers compliance with licenses from a user perspective.
If you are interested in licence compliance as a contributor, you can find
guidelines
here
.
Tip
Alongside the Godot license text, remember to also list third-party notices
for assets you're using, such as textures, models, sounds, music and fonts.
This includes free assets, which often come with licenses that require
attribution.
Requirements

In the case of the MIT license, the only requirement is to include the license
text somewhere in your game or derivative project.
This text reads as follows:
This game uses Godot Engine, available under the following license:

Copyright (c) 2014-present Godot Engine contributors.
Copyright (c) 2007-2014 Juan Linietsky, Ariel Manzur.

Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy

Copy to clipboard
Beside its own MIT license, Godot includes code from a number of third-party
libraries. See
Third-party licenses
for details.
Note
Your games do not need to be under the same license. You are free to release
your Godot projects under any license and to create commercial games with
the engine.
Inclusion

The license text must be made available to the user. The license doesn't specify
how the text has to be included, but here are the most common approaches (you
only need to implement one of them, not all).
Credits screen

Include the above license text somewhere in the credits screen. It can be at the
bottom after showing the rest of the credits. Most large studios use this
approach with open source licenses.
Licenses screen

Some games have a special menu (often in the settings) to display licenses.
This menu is typically accessed with a button called
Third-party Licenses
or
Open Source Licenses
.
Output log

Printing the license text using the
print()
function may be enough on platforms where a global output log is readable.
This is the case on desktop platforms, Android and HTML5 (but not iOS).
Accompanying file

If the game is distributed on desktop platforms, a file containing the license
text can be added to the software that is installed to the user PC.
Printed manual

If the game includes a printed manual, the license text can be included there.
Link to the license

The Godot Engine developers consider that a link to
godotengine.org/license
in your game documentation or credits would be an acceptable way to satisfy
the license terms.
Tip
Godot provides several methods to get license information in the
Engine
singleton. This allows you to source the
license information directly from the engine binary, which prevents the
information from becoming outdated if you update engine versions.
For the engine itself:
Engine.get_license_text
For third-party components used by the engine:
Engine.get_license_info
Engine.get_copyright_info
Third-party licenses

Godot itself contains software written by
third parties
,
which is compatible with, but not covered by Godot's MIT license.
Many of these dependencies are distributed under permissive open source licenses
which require attribution by explicitly citing their copyright statement and
license text in the final product's documentation.
Given the scope of the Godot project, this is fairly difficult to do thoroughly.
For the Godot editor, the full documentation of third-party copyrights and
licenses is provided in the
COPYRIGHT.txt
file.
A good option for end users to document third-party licenses is to include this
file in your project's distribution, which you can e.g. rename to
GODOT_COPYRIGHT.txt
to prevent any confusion with your own code and assets.

Conversion Response Reasoning Content

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Table:** `docs_chunks`
   - **Required Fields:** `chunk_id`, `doc_version`, `source_url`, `source_file`, `source_sha256`, `doc_type`, `symbol`, `section_path`, `heading`, `content`, `code_blocks`, `language_tags`, `godot_version_tags`, `api_symbols`, `token_count`, `metadata`
   - **Rules:**
     - `chunk_id`: Must match `^godot-\w+:\S+`. Use deterministic like `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001`. Never `chunk_0` or plain numeric.
     - `doc_version`: e.g., `stable`, `latest`, `4.6`, `unknown`.
     - `source_url`: original docs URL if known, else `""`.
     - `source_file`: MUST be `pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md`
     - `source_sha256`: MUST be `2594f1e735cae7d004e632558e2fd4dacbf4317dfce8a2f5dce6cc4ddc2a54c3`
     - `doc_type`: exactly one of `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. Never `article`.
     - `symbol`: class/API symbol or `""`.
     - `section_path`: list[str] heading hierarchy.
     - `heading`: section heading.
     - `content`: searchable body text.
     - `code_blocks`: list[str] extracted code blocks.
     - `language_tags`: list[str] detected code languages.
     - `godot_version_tags`: list[str] version hints.
     - `api_symbols`: list[str] detected Godot symbols.
     - `token_count`: int estimated token count.
     - `metadata`: dict extra metadata.
   - **Input Markdown:** A single page about "Complying with licenses" from Godot docs. Contains sections: "What are licenses?", "Requirements", "Inclusion", "Credits screen", "Licenses screen", "Output log", "Accompanying file", "Printed manual", "Link to the license", "Third-party licenses". Contains a code block (the MIT license text). Mentions `Engine.get_license_text`, `Engine.get_license_info`, `Engine.get_copyright_info`. Version mentioned: 4.6, stable.
   - **Output Format:** JSON array of records. No markdown fences. No comments.

2.  **Determine Chunking Strategy:**
   The prompt asks for "documentation chunk records". I should split the markdown into logical chunks based on headings. I'll create one record per major section to keep it manageable, or maybe just one record for the whole page if it's short, but splitting by headings is usually better for RAG. Let's split by the main headings provided in the markdown.
   Headings found:
   - Complying with licenses (Title)
   - What are licenses?
   - Requirements
   - Inclusion
   - Credits screen
   - Licenses screen
   - Output log
   - Accompanying file
   - Printed manual
   - Link to the license
   - Third-party licenses

   I'll create chunks for each section. I need to ensure `chunk_id` matches the regex. I'll use `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001`, etc.
   `doc_version`: `stable` (from URL `en/stable/`)
   `source_url`: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/complying_with_licenses.html`
   `source_file`: `pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md`
   `source_sha256`: `2594f1e735cae7d004e632558e2fd4dacbf4317dfce8a2f5dce6cc4ddc2a54c3`
   `doc_type`: `about` (fits best)
   `symbol`: `""` (it's a general docs page, not a class ref)
   `section_path`: array of headings leading to this section.
   `heading`: current section heading.
   `content`: text of the section.
   `code_blocks`: extract the MIT license block.
   `language_tags`: `["text"]` or `["license"]` or `[""]`. I'll use `["text"]`.
   `godot_version_tags`: `["4.6", "stable"]`
   `api_symbols`: `["Engine.get_license_text", "Engine.get_license_info", "Engine.get_copyright_info"]`
   `token_count`: estimate ~150-300 per chunk. I'll put a reasonable number like 200.
   `metadata`: `{}` or some extra info.

   Let's structure the chunks carefully. I'll make one chunk per major section to keep it clean. Actually, the prompt says "Return a JSON array of documentation chunk records." It doesn't specify how many. I'll generate one record per logical section found in the markdown.

   Sections to process:
   1. Complying with licenses (Intro/Warning/Note/Tip)
   2. What are licenses?
   3. Requirements
   4. Inclusion
   5. Credits screen
   6. Licenses screen
   7. Output log
   8. Accompanying file
   9. Printed manual
   10. Link to the license
   11. Third-party licenses

   Wait, the markdown has a code block under "Requirements". I'll attach it to that chunk or the first one. I'll put it in the "Requirements" chunk.
   I'll extract the exact text for each chunk.

   Let's draft the JSON records.

   **Chunk 1:**
   - chunk_id: `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001`

   Check constraints:
   - `chunk_id` matches `^godot-\w+:\S+` -> `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001` etc. Matches.
   - `doc_version`: `stable`
   - `source_url`: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/complying_with_licenses.html`
   - `source_file`: `pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md`
   - `source_sha256`: `2594f1e735cae7d004e632558e2fd4dacbf4317dfce8a2f5dce6cc4ddc2a54c3`
   - `doc_type`: `about`
   - `symbol`: `""`
   - `section_path`: list of strings
   - `heading`: string
   - `content`: string
   - `code_blocks`: list of strings
   - `language_tags`: list of strings
   - `godot_version_tags`: list of strings -> `["4.6", "stable"]` for all, or maybe just `["stable"]`. I'll add `["4.6", "stable"]` to all or just the first. I'll put it in all for consistency, or leave empty if not explicitly in text. The text says "Godot Engine 4.6 documentation in English". I'll add `["4.6", "stable"]` to `godot_version_tags`.
   - `api_symbols`: list of strings
   - `token_count`: int
   - `metadata`: dict

   I will construct the JSON array carefully. I'll make sure all fields are present. I'll double-check the regex for chunk_id: `^godot-\w+:\S+`. `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001` matches.
   I'll ensure no markdown formatting in the output.
   I'll verify the exact source file and sha256 are used.
   I'll verify `doc_type` is exactly one of the allowed values. `about` is allowed.
   I'll verify `symbol` is empty string.
   I'll verify `section_path` is a list of strings.
   I'll verify `code_blocks` contains the exact license text.
   I'll verify `language_tags` contains `["text"]` or `["license"]`. I'll use `["text"]`.
   I'll verify `godot_version_tags` contains `["4.6", "stable"]`.
   I'll verify `api_symbols` contains the engine methods.
   I'll verify `token_count` is an integer.
   I'll verify `metadata` is a dict.

   One minor thing: The prompt says "Return a JSON array of documentation chunk records." It doesn't specify how many chunks. I'll stick with the section-based chunks. It's standard.
   I will format the JSON carefully.
   Let's assemble. 
   I'll make sure to escape quotes in the license text properly for JSON.
   I'll check the exact text for the license block to ensure it matches.
   "This game uses Godot Engine, available under the following license:\n\nCopyright (c) 2014-present Godot Engine contributors.\nCopyright (c) 2007-2014 Juan Linietsky, Ariel Manzur.\n\nPermission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy\nof this software and associated documentation files (the \"Software\"), to deal\nin the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights\nto use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell\ncopies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is\nfurnished to do so, subject to the following conditions:\n\nThe above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all\ncopies or substantial portions of the Software.\n\nTHE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED \"AS IS\", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR\nIMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,\nFITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.

   This matches.

   All fields look good. I will generate the JSON now.
   One detail: `godot_version_tags` should probably be `["4.6", "stable"]` for each chunk, or I can just put it in the first one. I'll put it in all for consistency, or leave it as `["4.6", "stable"]` in all. It's fine.
   I'll ensure `doc_type` is `about`.
   I'll ensure `symbol` is `""`.
   I'll ensure `section_path` is correct.
   I'll ensure `heading` matches exactly.
   I'll ensure `content` is clean text.
   I'll ensure `code_blocks` is a list of strings.
   I'll ensure `language_tags` is a list of strings.
   I'll ensure `api_symbols` is a list of strings.
   I'll ensure `token_count` is int.
   I'll ensure `metadata` is dict.

   Ready. Output matches requirements. No markdown fences. Just JSON array.
   I will produce it now. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   The prompt says "Never return chunk_0 or plain numeric IDs." My IDs are `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001`, etc. This matches `^godot-\w+:\S+`.
   I'll make sure the JSON is strictly valid.
   I'll combine everything into a single JSON array.
   All good.
   Output generation. 
   [Proceeds] 
   *Self-Correction/Verification during generation prep*:
   Check `doc_type` allowed values: `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. `about` is correct.
   Check `source_file`: `pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md` (exact match)
   Check `source_sha256`: `2594f1e735cae7d004e632558e2fd4dacbf4317dfce8a2f5dce6cc4ddc2a54c3` (exact match)
   Check `chunk_id` regex: `^godot-\w+:\S+` -> `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001` matches.
   All constraints met.
   I will output the JSON array now. 
   Note: I'll make sure to escape newlines in the license block properly for JSON.
   I'll produce the exact JSON.✅
   Output matches. 
   [Done] 
   *Output Generation* (matches the final JSON)
   ```json
   [
     { ... },
     ...
   ]
   ```
   No markdown fences. Just raw JSON.
   Proceeds. 
   [Output Generation] -> *See response.* 
   *(Self-Correction/Note during thought)*: I should verify that `section_path` is a list of strings representing the heading hierarchy. For the first chunk, it's `["Complying with licenses"]`. For the second, `["Complying with licenses", "What are licenses?"]`, etc. This is correct.
   I will ensure all fields are present in every record.
   All good. 
   Output matches request.✅
   [Final Check of the Prompt]: "Return ONLY a JSON array — no markdown code fences, no explanation. /no_think"
   I will output raw JSON.
   Proceeds. 
   [Output Generation] -> *Proceeds*

For the engine itself: Engine.get_license_text For third-party components used by the engine: Engine.get_license_info Engine.get_copyright_info\",\n    \"code_blocks\": [],\n    \"language_tags\": [],\n    \"godot_version_tags\": [\"4.6\", \"stable\"],\n    \"api_symbols\": [\"Engine.get_license_text\", \"Engine.get_license_info\", \"Engine.get_copyright_info\"],\n    \"token_count\": 95,\n    \"metadata\": {}\n  },\n  {\n    \"chunk_id\": \"godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0011\",\n    \"doc_version\": \"stable\",\n    \"source_url\": \"https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/complying_with_licenses.html\",\n    \"source_file\": \"pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md\",\n    \"source_sha256\": \"2594f1e735cae7d004e632558e2fd4dacbf4317dfce8a2f5dce6cc4ddc2a54c3\",\n    \"doc_type\": \"about\",\n    \"symbol\": \"\",\n    \"section_path\": [\"Complying with licenses\", \"Third-party licenses\"],\n    \"heading\": \"Third-party licenses\",\n    \"content\": \"Godot itself contains software written by third parties, which is compatible with, but not covered by Godot's MIT license.

  "reasoning_content": "Here's a thinking process:\n\n1.  **Analyze User Input:**\n   - **Table:** `docs_chunks`\n   - **Required Fields:** `chunk_id`, `doc_version`, `source_url`, `source_file`, `source_sha256`, `doc_type`, `symbol`, `section_path`, `heading`, `content`, `code_blocks`, `language_tags`, `godot_version_tags`, `api_symbols`, `token_count`, `metadata`\n   - **Rules:**\n     - `chunk_id`: Must match `^godot-\\w+:\\S+`. Use deterministic like `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001`. Never `chunk_0` or plain numeric.\n     - `doc_version`: e.g., `stable`, `latest`, `4.6`, `unknown`.\n     - `source_url`: original docs URL if known, else `\"\"`.\n     - `source_file`: MUST be `pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md`\n     - `source_sha256`: MUST be `2594f1e735cae7d004e632558e2fd4dacbf4317dfce8a2f5dce6cc4ddc2a54c3`\n     - `doc_type`: exactly one of `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. Never `article`.\n     - `symbol`: class/API symbol or `\"\"`.\n     - `section_path`: list[str] heading hierarchy.\n     - `heading`: section heading.\n     - `content`: searchable body text.\n     - `code_blocks`: list[str] extracted code blocks.\n     - `language_tags`: list[str] detected code languages.\n     - `godot_version_tags`: list[str] version hints.\n     - `api_symbols`: list[str] detected Godot symbols.\n     - `token_count`: int estimated token count.\n     - `metadata`: dict extra metadata.\n   - **Input Markdown:** A single page about \"Complying with licenses\" from Godot docs. Contains sections: \"What are licenses?\", \"Requirements\", \"Inclusion\", \"Credits screen\", \"Licenses screen\", \"Output log\", \"Accompanying file\", \"Printed manual\", \"Link to the license\", \"Third-party licenses\". Contains a code block (the MIT license text). Mentions `Engine.get_license_text`, `Engine.get_license_info`, `Engine.get_copyright_info`. Version mentioned: 4.6, stable.\n   - **Output Format:** JSON array of records. No markdown fences. No comments.\n\n2.  **Determine Chunking Strategy:**\n   The prompt asks for \"documentation chunk records\". I should split the markdown into logical chunks based on headings. I'll create one record per major section to keep it manageable, or maybe just one record for the whole page if it's short, but splitting by headings is usually better for RAG. Let's split by the main headings provided in the markdown.\n   Headings found:\n   - Complying with licenses (Title)\n   - What are licenses?\n   - Requirements\n   - Inclusion\n   - Credits screen\n   - Licenses screen\n   - Output log\n   - Accompanying file\n   - Printed manual\n   - Link to the license\n   - Third-party licenses\n\n   I'll create chunks for each section. I need to ensure `chunk_id` matches the regex. I'll use `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001`, etc.\n   `doc_version`: `stable` (from URL `en/stable/`)\n   `source_url`: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/complying_with_licenses.html`\n   `source_file`: `pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md`\n   `source_sha256`: `2594f1e735cae7d004e632558e2fd4dacbf4317dfce8a2f5dce6cc4ddc2a54c3`\n   `doc_type`: `about` (fits best)\n   `symbol`: `\"\"` (it's a general docs page, not a class ref)\n   `section_path`: array of headings leading to this section.\n   `heading`: current section heading.\n   `content`: text of the section.\n   `code_blocks`: extract the MIT license block.\n   `language_tags`: `[\"text\"]` or `[\"license\"]` or `[\"\"]`. I'll use `[\"text\"]`.\n   `godot_version_tags`: `[\"4.6\", \"stable\"]`\n   `api_symbols`: `[\"Engine.get_license_text\", \"Engine.get_license_info\", \"Engine.get_copyright_info\"]`\n   `token_count`: estimate ~150-300 per chunk. I'll put a reasonable number like 200.\n   `metadata`: `{}` or some extra info.\n\n   Let's structure the chunks carefully. I'll make one chunk per major section to keep it clean. Actually, the prompt says \"Return a JSON array of documentation chunk records.\" It doesn't specify how many. I'll generate one record per logical section found in the markdown.\n\n   Sections to process:\n   1. Complying with licenses (Intro/Warning/Note/Tip)\n   2. What are licenses?\n   3. Requirements\n   4. Inclusion\n   5. Credits screen\n   6. Licenses screen\n   7. Output log\n   8. Accompanying file\n   9. Printed manual\n   10. Link to the license\n   11. Third-party licenses\n\n   Wait, the markdown has a code block under \"Requirements\". I'll attach it to that chunk or the first one. I'll put it in the \"Requirements\" chunk.\n   I'll extract the exact text for each chunk.\n\n   Let's draft the JSON records.\n\n   **Chunk 1:**\n   - chunk_id: `godot-stable:pages/about__complying_with_licenses__d36558dd.md#section-0001`\n   - heading: `Complying with licenses`\n   - section_path: `[\"Complying with licenses\"]`\n   - content: `Learn how to contribute!

Which platforms are supported by Godot?

For the editor:
Windows
macOS
Linux, *BSD
Android (experimental)
Web
(experimental)
For exporting your games:
Windows
macOS
Linux, *BSD
Android
iOS
Web
Both 32- and 64-bit binaries are supported where it makes sense, with 64
being the default. Official macOS builds support Apple Silicon natively as well as x86_64.
Some users also report building and using Godot successfully on ARM-based
systems with Linux, like the Raspberry Pi.
For information about console support, see the
Godot website
.
For more on this, see the sections on
exporting
and
compiling Godot yourself
.
Note
Godot 3 also had support for Universal Windows Platform (UWP). This platform
port was removed in Godot 4 due to lack of maintenance, and it being
deprecated by Microsoft. It is still available in the current stable release
of Godot 3 for interested users.
Which programming languages are supported in Godot?

The officially supported languages for Godot are GDScript, C#, and C++.
See the subcategories for each language in the
scripting
section.
If you are just starting out with either Godot or game development in general,
GDScript is the recommended language to learn and use since it is native to Godot.
While scripting languages tend to be less performant than lower-level languages in
the long run, for prototyping, developing Minimum Viable Products (MVPs), and
focusing on Time-To-Market (TTM), GDScript will provide a fast, friendly, and capable
way of developing your games.
Note that C# support is still relatively new, and as such, you may encounter
some issues along the way. C# support is also currently missing on the web
platform. Our friendly and hard-working development community is always
ready to tackle new problems as they arise, but since this is an open source
project, we recommend that you first do some due diligence yourself. Searching
through discussions on
open issues
is a great way to start your troubleshooting.
As for new languages, support is possible via third parties with GDExtensions. (See the question
about plugins below). Work is currently underway, for example, on unofficial bindings for Godot
to
Python
and
Nim
.
What is GDScript and why should I use it?

GDScript is Godot's integrated scripting language. It was built from the ground
up to maximize Godot's potential in the least amount of code, affording both novice
and expert developers alike to capitalize on Godot's strengths as fast as possible.
If you've ever written anything in a language like Python before, then you'll feel
right at home. For examples and a complete overview of the power GDScript offers
you, check out the
GDScript scripting guide
.
There are several reasons to use GDScript, but the most salient reason is the overall
reduction of complexity
.
The original intent of creating a tightly integrated, custom scripting language for
Godot was two-fold: first, it reduces the amount of time necessary to get up and running
with Godot, giving developers a rapid way of exposing themselves to the engine with a
focus on productivity; second, it reduces the overall burden of maintenance, attenuates
the dimensionality of issues, and allows the developers of the engine to focus on squashing
bugs and improving features related to the engine core, rather than spending a lot of time
trying to get a small set of incremental features working across a large set of languages.
Since Godot is an open source project, it was imperative from the start to prioritize a
more integrated and seamless experience over attracting additional users by supporting
more familiar programming languages, especially when supporting those more familiar
languages would result in a worse experience. We understand if you would rather use
another language in Godot (see the list of supported options above). That being said, if
you haven't given GDScript a try, try it for
three days
. Just like Godot,
once you see how powerful it is and how rapid your development becomes, we think GDScript
will grow on you.
More information about getting comfortable with GDScript or dynamically typed
languages can be found in the
GDScript: An introduction to dynamic languages
tutorial.
What were the motivations behind creating GDScript?

In the early days, the engine used the
Lua
scripting
language. Lua can be fast thanks to LuaJIT, but creating bindings to an object-oriented
system (by using fallbacks) was complex and slow and took an enormous
amount of code. After some experiments with
Python
,
that also proved difficult to embed.
The main reasons for creating a custom scripting language for Godot were:
Poor threading support in most script VMs, and Godot uses threads
(Lua, Python, Squirrel, JavaScript, ActionScript, etc.).
Poor class-extending support in most script VMs, and adapting to
the way Godot works is highly inefficient (Lua, Python, JavaScript).
Many existing languages have horrible interfaces for binding to C++, resulting in a
large amount of code, bugs, bottlenecks, and general inefficiency (Lua, Python,
Squirrel, JavaScript, etc.). We wanted to focus on a great engine, not a great number
of integrations.
No native vector types (Vector3, Transform3D, etc.), resulting in highly
reduced performance when using custom types (Lua, Python, Squirrel,
JavaScript, ActionScript, etc.).
Garbage collector results in stalls or unnecessarily large memory
usage (Lua, Python, JavaScript, ActionScript, etc.).
Difficulty integrating with the code editor for providing code
completion, live editing, etc. (all of them).
GDScript was designed to curtail the issues above, and more.
Which programming language is fastest?

In most games, the
scripting language
itself is not the cause of performance
problems. Instead, performance is slowed by inefficient algorithms (which are
slow in all languages), by GPU performance, or by the common C++ engine code
like physics or navigation. All languages supported by Godot are fast enough for
general-purpose scripting. You should choose a language based on other factors,
like ease-of-use, familiarity, platform support, or language features.
In general, the performance of C# and GDScript is within the same order of
magnitude, and C++ is faster than both.
Comparing GDScript performance to C# is tricky, since C# can be faster in some
specific cases. The C#
language
itself tends to be faster than GDScript, which
means that C# can be faster in situations with few calls to Godot engine code.
However, C# can be slower than GDScript when making many Godot API calls, due
to the cost of
marshalling
. C#'s performance can also be brought down by garbage
collection which occurs at random and unpredictable moments. This can result in
stuttering issues in complex projects, and is not exclusive to Godot.
C++, using
GDExtension
, will almost always be
faster than either C# or GDScript. However, C++ is less easy to use than C# or
GDScript, and is slower to develop with.
You can also use multiple languages within a single project, with
cross-language scripting
, or by using
GDExtension and scripting languages together. Be aware that doing so comes with
its own complications.
What 3D model formats does Godot support?

You can find detailed information on supported formats, how to export them from
your 3D modeling software, and how to import them for Godot in the
Importing 3D scenes
documentation.
Will [insert closed SDK such as FMOD, GameWorks, etc.] be supported in Godot?

The aim of Godot is to create a free and open source MIT-licensed engine that
is modular and extendable. There are no plans for the core engine development
community to support any third-party, closed-source/proprietary SDKs, as integrating
with these would go against Godot's ethos.
That said, because Godot is open source and modular, nothing prevents you or
anyone else interested in adding those libraries as a module and shipping your
game with them, as either open- or closed-source.
To see how support for your SDK of choice could still be provided, look at the
Plugins question below.
If you know of a third-party SDK that is not supported by Godot but that offers
free and open source integration, consider starting the integration work yourself.
Godot is not owned by one person; it belongs to the community, and it grows along
with ambitious community contributors like you.
How can I extend Godot?

For extending Godot, like creating Godot Editor plugins or adding support
for additional languages, take a look at
EditorPlugins
and tool scripts.
Also, see the official blog post on GDExtension, a way to develop native extensions for Godot:
Introducing GDNative's successor, GDExtension
You can also take a look at the GDScript implementation, the Godot modules,
as well as the
Jolt physics engine integration
for Godot. This would be a good starting point to see how another
third-party library integrates with Godot.
How do I install the Godot editor on my system (for desktop integration)?

Since you don't need to actually install Godot on your system to run it,
this means desktop integration is not performed automatically.
There are two ways to overcome this. You can install Godot from
Steam
(all platforms),
Scoop
(Windows),
Homebrew
(macOS)
or
Flathub
(Linux).
This will automatically perform the required steps for desktop integration.
Alternatively, you can manually perform the steps that an installer would do for you:
Windows

Move the Godot executable to a stable location (i.e. outside of your Downloads folder),
so you don't accidentally move it and break the shortcut in the future.
Right-click the Godot executable and choose
Create Shortcut
.
Move the created shortcut to
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Start
Menu\Programs
.
This is the user-wide location for shortcuts that will appear in the Start menu.
You can also pin Godot in the task bar by right-clicking the executable and choosing
Pin to Task Bar
.
macOS

Drag the extracted Godot application to
/Applications/Godot.app
, then drag it
to the Dock if desired. Spotlight will be able to find Godot as long as it's in
/Applications
or
~/Applications
.
Linux

Move the Godot binary to a stable location (i.e. outside of your Downloads folder),
so you don't accidentally move it and break the shortcut in the future.
Rename and move the Godot binary to a location present in your
PATH
environment variable.
This is typically
/usr/local/bin/godot
or
/usr/bin/godot
.
Doing this requires administrator privileges,
but this also allows you to
run the Godot editor from a terminal
by entering
godot
.
If you cannot move the Godot editor binary to a protected location, you can
keep the binary somewhere in your home directory, and modify the
Path=
line in the
.desktop
file linked below to contain the full
absolute
path
to the Godot binary.
Save
this .desktop file
to
$HOME/.local/share/applications/
. If you have administrator privileges,
you can also save the
.desktop
file to
/usr/local/share/applications
to make the shortcut available for all users.
Is the Godot editor a portable application?

In its default configuration, Godot is
semi-portable
. Its executable can run
from any location (including non-writable locations) and never requires
administrator privileges.
However, configuration files will be written to the user-wide configuration or
data directory. This is usually a good approach, but this means configuration files
will not carry across machines if you copy the folder containing the Godot executable.
See
File paths in Godot projects
for more information.
If
true
portable operation is desired (e.g. for use on a USB stick),
follow the steps in
Self-contained mode
.
Why does Godot aim to keep its core feature set small?

Godot intentionally does not include features that can be implemented by add-ons
unless they are used very often. One example of something not used often is
advanced artificial intelligence functionality.
There are several reasons for this:
Code maintenance and surface for bugs.
Every time we accept new code in
the Godot repository, existing contributors often take the responsibility of
maintaining it. Some contributors don't always stick around after getting
their code merged, which can make it difficult for us to maintain the code in
question. This can lead to poorly maintained features with bugs that are never
fixed. On top of that, the "API surface" that needs to be tested and checked
for regressions keeps increasing over time.
Ease of contribution.
By keeping the codebase small and tidy, it can remain
fast and easy to compile from source. This makes it easier for new
contributors to get started with Godot, without requiring them to purchase
high-end hardware.
Keeping the binary size small for the editor.
Not everyone has a fast Internet
connection. Ensuring that everyone can download the Godot editor, extract it
and run it in less than 5 minutes makes Godot more accessible to developers in
all countries.
Keeping the binary size small for export templates.
This directly impacts the
size of projects exported with Godot. On mobile and web platforms, keeping
file sizes low is important to ensure fast installation and loading on
underpowered devices. Again, there are many countries where high-speed
Internet is not readily available. To add to this, strict data usage caps are
often in effect in those countries.
For all the reasons above, we have to be selective of what we can accept as core
functionality in Godot. This is why we are aiming to move some core
functionality to officially supported add-ons in future versions of Godot.
In terms of binary size, this also has the advantage of making you pay only for
what you actually use in your project. (In the meantime, you can
compile custom export templates with unused features disabled
to optimize the distribution size of your project.)
How should assets be created to handle multiple resolutions and aspect ratios?

This question pops up often and it's probably thanks to the misunderstanding
created by Apple when they originally doubled the resolution of their devices.
It made people think that having the same assets in different resolutions was a
good idea, so many continued towards that path. That originally worked to a
point and only for Apple devices, but then several Android and Apple devices
with different resolutions and aspect ratios were created, with a very wide
range of sizes and DPIs.
The most common and proper way to achieve this is to, instead, use a single base
resolution for the game and only handle different screen aspect ratios. This is
mostly needed for 2D, as in 3D, it's just a matter of camera vertical or
horizontal FOV.
Choose a single base resolution for your game. Even if there are
devices that go up to 1440p and devices that go down to 400p, regular
hardware scaling in your device will take care of this at little or
no performance cost. The most common choices are either near 1080p
(1920x1080) or 720p (1280x720). Keep in mind the higher the
resolution, the larger your assets, the more memory they will take
and the longer the time it will take for loading.
Use the stretch options in Godot; canvas items stretching while keeping
aspect ratios works best. Check the
Multiple resolutions
tutorial
on how to achieve this.
Determine a minimum resolution and then decide if you want your game
to stretch vertically or horizontally for different aspect ratios, or
if there is one aspect ratio and you want black bars to appear
instead. This is also explained in
Multiple resolutions
.
For user interfaces, use the
anchoring
to determine where controls should stay and move. If UIs are more
complex, consider learning about Containers.
And that's it! Your game should work in multiple resolutions.
When is the next release of Godot out?

When it's ready! See
When is the next release out?
for more
information.
Which Godot version should I use for a new project?

We recommend using Godot 4.x for new projects, but depending on the feature set
you need, it may be better to use 3.x instead. See
Which version should I use for a new project?
for more information.
Should I upgrade my project to use new Godot versions?

Some new versions are safer to upgrade to than others. In general, whether you
should upgrade depends on your project's circumstances. See
Should I upgrade my project to use new engine versions?
for more information.
Should I use the Forward+, Mobile, or Compatibility renderer?

You can find a detailed comparison of the renderers in
Overview of renderers
.
I would like to contribute! How can I get started?

Awesome! As an open source project, Godot thrives off of the innovation and
the ambition of developers like you.
The best way to start contributing to Godot is by using it and reporting
any
issues
that you might experience.
A good bug report with clear reproduction steps helps your fellow contributors
fix bugs quickly and efficiently. You can also report issues you find in the
online documentation
.
If you feel ready to submit your first PR, pick any issue that resonates with you from
one of the links above and try your hand at fixing it. You will need to learn how to
compile the engine from sources, or how to build the documentation. You also need to
get familiar with Git, a version control system that Godot developers use.
We explain how to work with the engine source, how to edit the documentation, and
what other ways to contribute are there in our
documentation for contributors
.
I have a great idea for Godot. How can I share it?

We are always looking for suggestions about how to improve the engine. User feedback
is the main driving force behind our decision-making process, and limitations that
you might face while working on your project are a great data point for us when considering
engine enhancements.
If you experience a usability problem or are missing a feature in the current version of
Godot, start by discussing it with our
community
.
There may be other, perhaps better, ways to achieve the desired result that community members
could suggest. And you can learn if other users experience the same issue, and figure out
a good solution together.
If you come up with a well-defined idea for the engine, feel free to open a
proposal issue
.
Try to be specific and concrete while describing your problem and your proposed
solution — only actionable proposals can be considered. It is not required, but
if you want to implement it yourself, that's always appreciated!
If you only have a general idea without specific details, you can open a
proposal discussion
.
These can be anything you want, and allow for a free-form discussion in search of
a solution. Once you find one, a proposal issue can be opened.
Please, read the
readme
document before creating a proposal to learn more about the process.
Is it possible to use Godot to create non-game applications?

Yes! Godot features an extensive built-in UI system, and its small distribution
size can make it a suitable alternative to frameworks like Electron or Qt.
See
Creating applications
for more information.
Is it possible to use Godot as a library?

If you are looking to make a game with Godot, keep in mind Godot is designed
to be used with its editor. We recommend you give it a try, as it
will most likely save you time in the long term.
For more specialized applications, it can make sense to look into using
Godot as a library. Since Godot 4.6, there is
experimental
support
for using Godot as a static or shared library in the form of LibGodot.
This is currently supported on Windows, macOS, and Linux. Support for
Android and iOS is planned for a future release.
You can find sample applications that use Godot as a library in the
migeran/libgodot_project GitHub repository
.
What user interface toolkit does Godot use?

Godot does not use a standard
GUI
toolkit
like GTK, Qt or wxWidgets. Instead, Godot uses its own user interface toolkit,
which is always rendered using hardware acceleration. There is no built-in software
fallback, although external solutions that emulate graphics APIs on the CPU can be used.
This toolkit is exposed in the form of Control nodes, which are used to render
the editor (which is written in C++). These Control nodes can also be used in projects
from any scripting language supported by Godot.
This custom toolkit makes it possible to benefit from hardware acceleration and
have a consistent appearance across all platforms. On top of that, it doesn't
have to deal with the LGPL licensing caveats that come with GTK or Qt. Lastly,
this means Godot is "eating its own dog food" since the editor itself is one of
the most complex users of Godot's UI system.
This custom UI toolkit can be
embedded into other applications
(experimental). However, the preferred way to use it is to
use Godot to create non-game applications with the editor
.
Why does Godot use the SCons build system?

Godot uses the
SCons
build system. There are no
plans to switch to a different build system in the near future. There are many
reasons why we have chosen SCons over other alternatives. For example:
Godot can be compiled for a dozen different platforms: all PC
platforms, all mobile platforms, many consoles, and WebAssembly.
Developers often need to compile for several of the platforms
at
the same time
, or even different targets of the same platform. They
can't afford reconfiguring and rebuilding the project each time.
SCons can do this with no sweat, without breaking the builds.
SCons will
never
break a build no matter how many changes,
configurations, additions, removals etc.
Godot's build process is not simple. Several files are generated by
code (binders), others are parsed (shaders), and others need to offer
customization (
modules
). This requires
complex logic which is easier to write in an actual programming language (like Python)
rather than using a mostly macro-based language only meant for building.
Godot's build process makes heavy use of cross-compiling tools. Each
platform has a specific detection process, and all these must be
handled as specific cases with special code written for each.
Please try to keep an open mind and get at least a little familiar with SCons if
you are planning to build Godot yourself.
Why does Godot not use STL (Standard Template Library)?

Like many other libraries (Qt as an example), Godot does not make use of STL
(with a few exceptions such as threading primitives). We believe STL is a great
general-purpose library, but we had special requirements for Godot.
STL templates create very large symbols, which results in huge debug binaries. We use few
templates with very short names instead.
Most of our containers cater to special needs, like Vector, which uses copy on write and we
use to pass data around, or the RID system, which requires O(1) access time for performance.
Likewise, our hash map implementations are designed to integrate seamlessly with internal
engine types.
Our containers have memory tracking built-in, which helps better track memory usage.
For large arrays, we use pooled memory, which can be mapped to either a preallocated buffer
or virtual memory.
We use our custom String type, as the one provided by STL is too basic and lacks proper
internationalization support.
Check out
Godot's container types
for alternatives.
Why does Godot not use exceptions?

We believe games should not crash, no matter what. If an unexpected
situation happens, Godot will print an error (which can be traced even to
script), but then it will try to recover as gracefully as possible and keep
going.
Additionally, exceptions significantly increase the binary size for the
executable and result in increased compile times.
Does Godot use an ECS (Entity Component System)?

Godot does
not
use an ECS and relies on inheritance instead. While there
is no universally better approach, we found that using an inheritance-based approach
resulted in better usability while still being fast enough for most use cases.
That said, nothing prevents you from making use of composition in your project
by creating child Nodes with individual scripts. These nodes can then be added and
removed at runtime to dynamically add and remove behaviors.
More information about Godot's design choices can be found in
this article
.
Why does Godot not force users to implement DOD (Data-Oriented Design)?

While Godot internally attempts to use cache coherency as much as possible,
we believe users don't need to be forced to use DOD practices.
DOD is mostly a cache coherency optimization that can only provide
significant performance improvements when dealing with dozens of
thousands of objects which are processed every frame with little
modification. That is, if you are moving a few hundred sprites or enemies
per frame, DOD won't result in a meaningful improvement in performance. In
such a case, you should consider a different approach to optimization.
The vast majority of games do not need this and Godot provides handy helpers
to do the job for most cases when you do.
If a game needs to process such a large amount of objects, our recommendation
is to use C++ and GDExtensions for performance-heavy tasks and GDScript (or C#)
for the rest of the game.

Conversion Response Reasoning Content

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Target Table:** `docs_chunks`
   - **Required Fields:** `chunk_id`, `doc_version`, `source_url`, `source_file`, `source_sha256`, `doc_type`, `symbol`, `section_path`, `heading`, `content`, `code_blocks`, `language_tags`, `godot_version_tags`, `api_symbols`, `token_count`, `metadata`
   - **Rules:**
     - `chunk_id`: Must match `^godot-\w+:\S+`. Use deterministic like `godot-stable:pages/about__intro.md#section-0001`. Never `chunk_0` or plain numeric.
     - `doc_version`: e.g., `stable`, `latest`, `4.6`, `unknown`.
     - `source_url`: original docs URL if known, else `""`.
     - `source_file`: MUST be `pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md`.
     - `source_sha256`: MUST be `f6f475530882770c0c5d8e65102df587bc04d92fd761f96a0c596633f93d7f1d`.
     - `doc_type`: exactly one of `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. Never `article`.
     - `symbol`: class/API symbol or `""`.
     - `section_path`: list of strings (heading hierarchy).
     - `heading`: section heading.
     - `content`: searchable body text.
     - `code_blocks`: list of strings.
     - `language_tags`: list of strings.
     - `godot_version_tags`: list of strings.
     - `api_symbols`: list of strings.
     - `token_count`: int.
     - `metadata`: dict.
   - **Input Markdown:** Contains an introduction page for Godot Engine 4.6. It has sections: "Introduction", "Before you start", "About Godot Engine", "Organization of the documentation", "About this documentation". It includes code blocks for GDScript and C#.
   - **Output Format:** JSON array only. No markdown fences. No comments.

2.  **Determine Chunking Strategy:**
   The prompt asks for "documentation chunk records". I should split the markdown into logical chunks based on headings. I'll create one record per major section to keep it structured, or maybe just one record for the whole page if it's short, but splitting by headings is safer for RAG. Let's split by the main headings provided in the markdown:
   - Chunk 1: Introduction (main heading)
   - Chunk 2: Before you start
   - Chunk 3: About Godot Engine
   - Chunk 4: Organization of the documentation
   - Chunk 5: About this documentation

   Wait, the prompt says "Return a JSON array of documentation chunk records." I'll generate one record per section to be safe, or maybe just one comprehensive record. Given the strict schema, I'll create one record per section. Actually, it's often better to just output one record for the whole page if it's a single document, but splitting is fine. I'll stick to one record per section to demonstrate the schema properly, or just one record for the entire text. Let's do one record per section for clarity, but I need to make sure `chunk_id` matches the regex. I'll generate 5 records.

   Let's extract data for each section:
   - `doc_version`: "4.6" (from "Godot Engine 4.6 documentation")
   - `source_url`: "https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/introduction.html"
   - `source_file`: "pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md"
   - `source_sha256`: "f6f475530882770c0c5d8e65102df587bc04d92fd761f96a0c596633f93d7f1d"
   - `doc_type`: "about"
   - `symbol`: ""
   - `section_path`: ["Introduction"] etc.
   - `heading`: matches section_path[0] or the actual heading.
   - `content`: text under the heading.
   - `code_blocks`: extract from the markdown.
   - `language_tags`: ["gdscript", "csharp"]
   - `godot_version_tags`: ["4.6"]
   - `api_symbols`: ["_ready", "_Ready", "GD.Print", "print"]
   - `token_count`: estimate (e.g., 150 per chunk)
   - `metadata`: {}

   Let's carefully parse the markdown to extract content for each chunk.

   **Chunk 1: Introduction**
   Heading: "Introduction"
   Content: "GDScript\nC#\nfunc _ready():\n    print(\"Hello world!\")\n\npublic override void _Ready()\n{\n    GD.Print(\"Hello world!\");\n}\n\nWelcome to the official documentation of Godot Engine, the free and open source community-driven 2D and 3D game engine!

   Content: "This documentation is organized into several sections:\nAbout contains this introduction as well as information about the engine, its history, its licensing, authors, etc. It also contains the Frequently asked questions.\nGetting Started contains all necessary information on using the engine to make games. It starts with the Introduction section which should be the entry point for all new users. This is the best place to start if you're new!\nThe Manual can be read or referenced as needed, in any order. It contains feature-specific tutorials and documentation.\nEngine details contains sections intended for advanced users and contributors, with information on compiling the engine, working on the editor, or developing C++ modules.\nCommunity is dedicated to the life of Godot's community and contains a list of recommended third-party tutorials and materials outside of this documentation. It also provides details on the Asset Library.

   Chunk ID: `godot-stable:pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md#section-0005`

   Let's verify fields against requirements:
   - `chunk_id`: matches `^godot-\w+:\S+` -> `godot-stable:pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md#section-0001` etc. Good.
   - `doc_version`: "4.6" or "stable". I'll use "4.6".
   - `source_url`: "https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/introduction.html"
   - `source_file`: "pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md"
   - `source_sha256`: "f6f475530882770c0c5d8e65102df587bc04d92fd761f96a0c596633f93d7f1d"
   - `doc_type`: "about"
   - `symbol`: ""
   - `section_path`: list of strings
   - `heading`: string
   - `content`: string
   - `code_blocks`: list of strings
   - `language_tags`: list of strings
   - `godot_version_tags`: list of strings
   - `api_symbols`: list of strings
   - `token_count`: int (I'll estimate ~100-200 per chunk)
   - `metadata`: dict

   I will construct the JSON array carefully. I'll make sure all fields are present and correctly typed.
   One detail: `code_blocks` in the markdown are formatted with newlines. I'll preserve them as strings.
   `language_tags`: ["gdscript", "csharp"]
   `godot_version_tags`: ["4.6"]
   `api_symbols`: ["_ready", "_Ready", "GD.Print", "print"]
   `token_count`: I'll put reasonable estimates like 150, 120, 180, 200, 160.
   `metadata`: {}

   Let's draft the JSON.
   Check regex for chunk_id: `^godot-\w+:\S+` -> `godot-stable:pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md#section-0001` matches.
   All good.

   I will generate the JSON array now.
   One minor thing: The prompt says "Never return chunk_0 or plain numeric IDs." My IDs follow the pattern.
   I'll ensure strict JSON formatting.
   I'll combine everything into a single array.
   Ready. 
   Output matches requirements.
   Proceeds. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   Should I include the code blocks in the first chunk only? Yes, they appear under "Introduction".
   I'll make sure `content` doesn't include the markdown formatting artifacts like `` or `Copy to clipboard`.
   I'll clean up the content strings slightly to be plain text as requested ("searchable body text").
   All fields are strictly typed.
   I will produce the JSON now. 
   Structure:
   [
     { ... },
     { ... },
     ...
   ]
   No markdown fences.
   Done. 
   Output generation.

  "reasoning_content": "Here's a thinking process:\n\n1.  **Analyze User Input:**\n   - **Target Table:** `docs_chunks`\n   - **Required Fields:** `chunk_id`, `doc_version`, `source_url`, `source_file`, `source_sha256`, `doc_type`, `symbol`, `section_path`, `heading`, `content`, `code_blocks`, `language_tags`, `godot_version_tags`, `api_symbols`, `token_count`, `metadata`\n   - **Rules:**\n     - `chunk_id`: Must match `^godot-\\w+:\\S+`. Use deterministic like `godot-stable:pages/about__intro.md#section-0001`. Never `chunk_0` or plain numeric.\n     - `doc_version`: e.g., `stable`, `latest`, `4.6`, `unknown`.\n     - `source_url`: original docs URL if known, else `\"\"`.\n     - `source_file`: MUST be `pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md`.\n     - `source_sha256`: MUST be `f6f475530882770c0c5d8e65102df587bc04d92fd761f96a0c596633f93d7f1d`.\n     - `doc_type`: exactly one of `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. Never `article`.\n     - `symbol`: class/API symbol or `\"\"`.\n     - `section_path`: list of strings (heading hierarchy).\n     - `heading`: section heading.\n     - `content`: searchable body text.\n     - `code_blocks`: list of strings.\n     - `language_tags`: list of strings.\n     - `godot_version_tags`: list of strings.\n     - `api_symbols`: list of strings.\n     - `token_count`: int.\n     - `metadata`: dict.\n   - **Input Markdown:** Contains an introduction page for Godot Engine 4.6. It has sections: \"Introduction\", \"Before you start\", \"About Godot Engine\", \"Organization of the documentation\", \"About this documentation\". It includes code blocks for GDScript and C#.\n   - **Output Format:** JSON array only. No markdown fences. No comments.\n\n2.  **Determine Chunking Strategy:**\n   The prompt asks for \"documentation chunk records\". I should split the markdown into logical chunks based on headings. I'll create one record per major section to keep it structured, or maybe just one record for the whole page if it's short, but splitting by headings is safer for RAG. Let's split by the main headings provided in the markdown:\n   - Chunk 1: Introduction (main heading)\n   - Chunk 2: Before you start\n   - Chunk 3: About Godot Engine\n   - Chunk 4: Organization of the documentation\n   - Chunk 5: About this documentation\n\n   Wait, the prompt says \"Return a JSON array of documentation chunk records.\" I'll generate one record per section to be safe, or maybe just one comprehensive record. Given the strict schema, I'll create one record per section. Actually, it's often better to just output one record for the whole page if it's a single document, but splitting is fine. I'll stick to one record per section to demonstrate the schema properly, or just one record for the entire text. Let's do one record per section for clarity, but I need to make sure `chunk_id` matches the regex. I'll generate 5 records.\n\n   Let's extract data for each section:\n   - `doc_version`: \"4.6\" (from \"Godot Engine 4.6 documentation\")\n   - `source_url`: \"https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/introduction.html\"\n   - `source_file`: \"pages/about__introduction__344b3840.md\"\n   - `source_sha256`: \"f6f475530882770c0c5d8e65102df587bc04d92fd761f96a0c596633f93d7f1d\"\n   - `doc_type`: \"about\"\n   - `symbol`: \"\"\n   - `section_path`: [\"Introduction\"] etc.\n   - `heading`: matches section_path[0] or the actual heading.\n   - `content`: text under the heading.\n   - `code_blocks`: extract from the markdown.\n   - `language_tags`: [\"gdscript\", \"csharp\"]\n   - `godot_version_tags`: [\"4.6\"]\n   - `api_symbols`: [\"_ready\", \"_Ready\", \"GD.Print\", \"print\"]\n   - `token_count`: estimate (e.g., 150 per chunk)\n   - `metadata`: {}\n\n   Let's carefully parse the markdown to extract content for each chunk.\n\n   **Chunk 1: Introduction**\n   Heading: \"Introduction\"\n   Content: \"GDScript\\nC#\\nfunc _ready():\\n    print(\\\"Hello world!\\\")\\n\\npublic override void _Ready()\\n{\\n    GD.Print(\\\"Hello world!\\\");\\n}\\n\\nWelcome to the official documentation of Godot Engine, the free and open source community-driven 2D and 3D game engine!

List of features

This page aims to list
all
features currently supported by Godot.
Note
This page lists features supported by the current stable version of
Godot. Some of these features are not available in the
3.x release series
.
Platforms

See also
See
System requirements
for hardware and software version requirements.
Note
For information about console support, see the
Godot website
.
Can run both the editor and exported projects:
Windows (x86 and ARM, 64-bit and 32-bit).
macOS (x86 and ARM, 64-bit only).
Linux (x86 and ARM, 64-bit and 32-bit).
Binaries are statically linked and can run on any distribution if compiled
on an old enough base distribution.
Official binaries are compiled using the
Godot Engine buildroot
,
allowing for binaries that work across common Linux distributions.
Android (editor support is experimental).
Web browsers
. Experimental in 4.0,
using Godot 3.x is recommended instead when targeting HTML5.
Note
Linux supports rv64 (RISC-V), ppc64 & ppc32 (PowerPC), and loongarch64. However
you must compile the editor for that platform (as well as export templates)
yourself, no official downloads are currently provided. RISC-V compiling
instructions can be found on the
Compiling for Linux, *BSD
page.
Runs exported projects:
iOS.
Godot aims to be as platform-independent as possible and can be
ported to new platforms
with relative ease.
Note
Projects written in C# using Godot 4 currently cannot be exported to the
web platform. To use C# on that platform, consider Godot 3 instead.
Android and iOS platform support is available as of Godot 4.2, but is
experimental and
some limitations apply
.

Rendering

Godot 4 includes three renderers:
Forward+
. The most advanced renderer, suited for desktop platforms only.
Used by default on desktop platforms. This renderer uses
Vulkan
,
Direct3D 12
,
or
Metal
as the rendering driver, and it uses the
RenderingDevice
backend.
Mobile
. Fewer features, but renders simple scenes faster. Suited for mobile
and desktop platforms. Used by default on mobile platforms. This renderer uses
Vulkan
,
Direct3D 12
, or
Metal
as the rendering driver, and it uses
the
RenderingDevice
backend.
Compatibility
, sometimes called
GL Compatibility
. The least advanced
renderer, suited for low-end desktop and mobile platforms. Used by default on
the web platform. This renderer uses
OpenGL
as the rendering driver.
See
Overview of renderers
for a detailed comparison of the rendering methods.
2D graphics

Sprite, polygon and line rendering.
High-level tools to draw lines and polygons such as
Polygon2D
and
Line2D
, with support for texturing.
AnimatedSprite2D as a helper for creating animated sprites.
Parallax layers.
Pseudo-3D support including preview in the editor.
2D lighting
with normal maps and specular maps.
Point (omni/spot) and directional 2D lights.

Custom shaders can access a real-time
SDF
representation of the 2D scene based on
LightOccluder2D
nodes,
which can be used for improved 2D lighting effects including 2D global illumination.
Font rendering
using bitmaps, rasterization using FreeType
or multi-channel signed distance fields (MSDF).
Bitmap fonts can be exported using tools like BMFont, or imported from images
(for fixed-width fonts only).
Dynamic fonts support monochrome fonts as well as colored fonts (e.g. for emoji).
Supported formats are TTF, OTF, WOFF1 and WOFF2.

Dynamic fonts support subpixel positioning to make fonts crisper at low sizes.
Dynamic fonts support LCD subpixel optimizations to make fonts even crisper at low sizes.
Signed distance field fonts can be scaled at any resolution without
requiring re-rasterization. Multi-channel usage makes SDF fonts scale down
to lower sizes better compared to monochrome SDF fonts.

When using the Forward+ renderer (default on desktop), lights are
rendered with clustered forward optimizations to decrease their individual cost.
Clustered rendering also lifts any limits on the number of lights that can be used on a mesh.
When using the Mobile renderer, up to 8 omni lights and 8 spot lights can
be displayed per mesh resource. Baked lighting can be used to overcome this limit
if needed.

Lightmaps are baked on the GPU using compute shaders (much faster compared
to CPU lightmapping). Baking can only be performed from the editor,
not in exported projects.
Supports GPU-based
denoising
with JNLM, or CPU/GPU-based denoising with OIDN.
Voxel-based GI probes
. Supports
dynamic lights

No baking required.
Screen-space indirect lighting (SSIL)
at half or full resolution. Fully real-time and supports any kind of emissive
light source (including decals).
VoxelGI and SDFGI use a deferred pass to allow for rendering GI at half
resolution to improve performance (while still having functional MSAA support).
Reflections:
Voxel-based reflections (when using GI probes) and SDF-based reflections
(when using signed distance field GI). Voxel-based reflections are visible
on transparent surfaces, while rough SDF-based reflections are visible
on transparent surfaces.

Parallax box correction can optionally be enabled.
Screen-space reflections with support for material roughness.
Reflection techniques can be mixed together for greater accuracy or scalability.
When using the Forward+ renderer (default on desktop), reflection probes are
rendered with clustered forward optimizations to decrease their individual cost.
Clustered rendering also lifts any limits on the number of reflection probes that can be used on a mesh.
When using the Mobile renderer, up to 8 reflection probes can be displayed per mesh
resource. When using the Compatibility renderer, up to 2 reflection probes can
be displayed per mesh resource.
Decals:

, emissive,
ORM
,
and normal mapping.
Texture channels are smoothly overlaid on top of the underlying material,
with support for normal/ORM-only decals.
Support for normal fade to fade the decal depending on its incidence angle.

complex skinned meshes with no performance penalty, even if the decal moves every frame.
Support for nearest, bilinear, trilinear or anisotropic texture filtering (configured globally).
Optional distance fade system to fade distant decals, improving performance.
When using the Forward+ renderer (default on desktop), decals are
rendered with clustered forward optimizations to decrease their individual cost.
Clustered rendering also lifts any limits on the number of decals that can be used on a mesh.
When using the Mobile renderer, up to 8 decals can be displayed per mesh
resource.

Supported shapes include box, ellipse, cone, cylinder, and 3D texture-based density maps.
Each fog volume can have its own custom shader.
Can be used together with traditional fog.
Particles:
GPU-based particles with support for subemitters (2D + 3D), trails (2D + 3D),
attractors (3D only) and collision (2D + 3D).
3D particle attractor shapes supported: box, sphere and 3D vector fields.

2D antialiasing
and
3D antialiasing
.
Fast approximate antialiasing (FXAA).
Super-sample antialiasing (SSAA) using bilinear 3D scaling and a 3D resolution scale above 1.0.
Alpha antialiasing, MSAA alpha to coverage and alpha hashing on a per-material basis.
Resolution scaling:
Support for
rendering 3D at a lower resolution
while keeping 2D rendering at the original scale. This can be used to improve
performance on low-end systems or improve visuals on high-end systems.
Resolution scaling uses bilinear filtering, AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution
1.0 (FSR1) or AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 2.2 (FSR2).
Texture mipmap LOD bias is adjusted automatically to improve quality at lower
resolution scales. It can also be modified with a manual offset.

Godot release policy

Godot's release policy is in constant evolution. The description below
provides a general idea of what to expect, but what will actually
happen depends on the choices of core contributors and the needs of the
community at a given time.
Godot versioning

Godot loosely follows
Semantic Versioning
with a
major.minor.patch
versioning system, albeit with an interpretation of each
term adapted to the complexity of a game engine:
The
major
version is incremented when major compatibility breakages happen
which imply significant porting work to move projects from one major version
to another.
For example, porting Godot projects from Godot 3.x to Godot 4.x requires
running the project through a conversion tool, and then performing a number
of further adjustments manually for what the tool could not do automatically.
The
minor
version is incremented for feature releases that do not break
compatibility in a major way. Minor compatibility breakage in very specific
areas
may
happen in minor versions, but the vast majority of projects
should not be affected or require significant porting work.
This is because Godot, as a game engine, covers many areas like rendering,
physics, and scripting. Fixing bugs or implementing new features in one area
might sometimes require changing a feature's behavior or modifying a class's
interface, even if the rest of the engine API remains backwards compatible.
Tip
Upgrading to a new minor version is recommended for all users,
but some testing is necessary to ensure that your project still behaves as
expected.
The
patch
version is incremented for maintenance releases which focus on
fixing bugs and security issues, implementing new requirements for platform
support, and backporting safe usability enhancements. Patch releases are
backwards compatible.
Patch versions may include minor new features which do not impact the
existing API, and thus have no risk of impacting existing projects.
Tip
Updating to new patch versions is therefore considered safe and strongly
recommended to all users of a given stable branch.
We call
major.minor
combinations
stable branches
. Each stable branch
starts with a
major.minor
release (without the
0
for
patch
) and is
further developed for maintenance releases in a Git branch of the same name
(for example patch updates for the 4.0 stable branch are developed in the
4.0
Git branch).
Release support timeline

Stable branches are supported
at least
until the next stable branch is
released and has received its first patch update. In practice, we support
stable branches on a
best effort
basis for as long as they have active users
who need maintenance updates.
Whenever a new major version is released, we make the previous stable branch a
long-term supported release, and do our best to provide fixes for issues
encountered by users of that branch who cannot port complex projects to the new
major version. This was the case for the 2.1 branch, and is the case for the
3.x branch.
In a given minor release series, only the latest patch release receives support.
If you experience an issue using an older patch release, please upgrade to the
latest patch release of that series and test again before reporting an issue
on GitHub.

See
Upgrading from Godot 3 to Godot 4
for instructions on migrating a project
from Godot 3.x to 4.x.
Which version should I use for a new project?

We recommend using Godot 4.x for new projects, as the Godot 4.x series will be
supported long after 3.x stops receiving updates in the future. One caveat is
that a lot of third-party documentation hasn't been updated for Godot 4.x yet.
If you have to follow a tutorial designed for Godot 3.x, we recommend keeping
Upgrading from Godot 3 to Godot 4
open in a separate tab to check which methods
have been renamed (if you get a script error while trying to use a specific node
or method that was renamed in Godot 4.x).
If your project requires a feature that is missing in 4.x (such as GLES2/WebGL
1.0), you should use Godot 3.x for a new project instead.
Should I upgrade my project to use new engine versions?

Note
Upgrading software while working on a project is inherently risky, so
consider whether it's a good idea for your project before attempting an
upgrade. Also, make backups of your project or use version control to
prevent losing data in case the upgrade goes wrong.
That said, we do our best to keep minor and especially patch releases
compatible with existing projects.
The general recommendation is to upgrade your project to follow new
patch
releases, such as upgrading from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3. This ensures you get bug fixes,
security updates and platform support updates (which is especially important for
mobile platforms). You also get continued support, as only the last patch
release receives support on official community platforms.
For
minor
releases, you should determine whether it's a good idea to upgrade
on a case-by-case basis. We've made a lot of effort in making the upgrade
process as seamless as possible, but some breaking changes may be present in
minor releases, along with a greater risk of regressions. Some fixes included in
minor releases may also change a class' expected behavior as required to fix
some bugs. This is especially the case in classes marked as
experimental
in
the documentation.
Major
releases bring a lot of new functionality, but they also remove
previously existing functionality and may raise hardware requirements. They also
require much more work to upgrade to compared to minor releases. As a result, we
recommend sticking with the major release you've started your project with if
you are happy with how your project currently works. For example, if your
project was started with 3.5, we recommend upgrading to 3.5.2 and possibly 3.6
in the future, but not to 4.0+, unless your project really needs the new
features that come with 4.0+.
When is the next release out?

While Godot contributors aren't working under any deadlines, we strive to
publish minor releases relatively frequently.
In particular, after the very long release cycle for 4.0, we are pivoting to
a faster-paced development workflow, 4.1 released 4 months after 4.0, and 4.2
released 4 months after 4.1.
Frequent minor releases will enable us to ship new features faster (possibly
as experimental), get user feedback quickly, and iterate to improve those
features and their usability. Likewise, the general user experience will be
improved more steadily with a faster path to the end users.
Maintenance (patch) releases are released as needed with potentially very
short development cycles, to provide users of the current stable branch with
the latest bug fixes for their production needs.
There is currently no planned release date for the next 3.x minor version, 3.7.
The current stable release, 3.6, may be the last stable branch of Godot 3.x.
Godot 3.x is supported on a best-effort basis, as long as contributors continue
to maintain it.
What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?

Note
This section is intended to be used by contributors to determine which
changes are safe for a given release. The list is not exhaustive; it only
outlines the most common situations encountered during Godot's development.
The following changes are acceptable in patch releases:
Fixing a bug in a way that has no major negative impact on most projects, such
as a visual or physics bug. Godot's physics engine is not deterministic, so
physics bug fixes are not considered to break compatibility. If fixing a bug
has a negative impact that could impact a lot of projects, it should be made
optional (e.g. using a project setting or separate method).
Adding a new optional parameter to a method.
Small-scale editor usability tweaks.
Note that we tend to be more conservative with the fixes we allow in each
subsequent patch release. For instance, 4.0.1 may receive more impactful fixes
than 4.0.4 would.
The following changes are acceptable in minor releases, but not patch releases:
Significant new features.
Renaming a method parameter. In C#, method parameters can be passed by name
(but not in GDScript). As a result, this can break some projects that use C#.
Deprecating a method, member variable, or class. This is done by adding a
deprecated flag to its class reference, which will show up in the editor. When
a method is marked as deprecated, it's slated to be removed in the next
major
release.
Changes that affect the default project theme's visuals.
Bug fixes which significantly change the behavior or the output, with the aim
to meet user expectations better. In comparison, in patch releases, we may
favor keeping a buggy behavior so we don't break existing projects which
likely already rely on the bug or use a workaround.
Performance optimizations that result in visual changes.
The following changes are considered
compatibility-breaking
and can only be
performed in a new major release:
Renaming or removing a method, member variable, or class.
Modifying a node's inheritance tree by making it inherit from a different class.
Changing the default value of a project setting value in a way that affects existing
projects. To only affect new projects, the project manager should write a
modified
project.godot
instead.
Since Godot 5.0 hasn't been branched off yet, we currently discourage making
compatibility-breaking changes of this kind.
Note
When modifying a method's signature in any fashion (including adding an
optional parameter), a GDExtension compatibility method must be created.
This ensures that existing GDExtensions continue to work across patch and
minor releases, so that users don't have to recompile them.

Conversion Response Reasoning Content

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Target Table:** `docs_chunks`
   - **Required Fields:** `chunk_id`, `doc_version`, `source_url`, `source_file`, `source_sha256`, `doc_type`, `symbol`, `section_path`, `heading`, `content`, `code_blocks`, `language_tags`, `godot_version_tags`, `api_symbols`, `token_count`, `metadata`
   - **Rules:**
     - `chunk_id`: Must match `^godot-\w+:\S+`. Use deterministic like `godot-stable:pages/about__intro.md#section-0001`. Never `chunk_0` or plain numeric.
     - `doc_version`: e.g., `stable`, `latest`, `4.6`, `unknown`.
     - `source_url`: original docs URL if known, else `""`.
     - `source_file`: MUST be `pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md`
     - `source_sha256`: MUST be `97886257e635e7282bce8c417c2193a2aa9c41e62319a9e24774b5c13c06dbdc`
     - `doc_type`: exactly one of `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. Never `article`.
     - `symbol`: class/API symbol or `""`.
     - `section_path`: list[str] heading hierarchy.
     - `heading`: section heading.
     - `content`: searchable body text.
     - `code_blocks`: list[str] extracted code blocks.
     - `language_tags`: list[str] detected code languages.
     - `godot_version_tags`: list[str] version hints.
     - `api_symbols`: list[str] detected Godot symbols.
     - `token_count`: int estimated token count.
     - `metadata`: dict extra metadata.
   - **Input Markdown:** A documentation page about Godot's release policy. Contains sections like "Godot release policy", "Godot versioning", "Release support timeline", "Which version should I use for a new project?", "Should I upgrade my project to use new engine versions?", "When is the next release out?", "What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?".
   - **Constraints:** Return ONLY a JSON array. No markdown code fences. No comments.

2.  **Determine Chunking Strategy:**
   The prompt asks for "documentation chunk records". I should split the markdown into logical chunks based on headings. Each chunk will be a record in the JSON array.
   I'll create one record per major section to keep it manageable and aligned with the schema.
   Sections identified:
   1. Godot release policy (intro)
   2. Godot versioning
   3. Release support timeline
   4. Which version should I use for a new project?
   5. Should I upgrade my project to use new engine versions?
   6. When is the next release out?
   7. What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?

   I'll generate one JSON object per section. I need to ensure all fields are present and correctly formatted.

   Let's draft each chunk carefully.

Minor compatibility breakage in very specific areas may happen in minor versions, but the vast majority of projects should not be affected or require significant porting work.\nThis is because Godot, as a game engine, covers many areas like rendering, physics, and scripting. Fixing bugs or implementing new features in one area might sometimes require changing a feature's behavior or modifying a class's interface, even if the rest of the engine API remains backwards compatible.\nTip\nUpgrading to a new minor version is recommended for all users, but some testing is necessary to ensure that your project still behaves as expected.\nThe patch version is incremented for maintenance releases which focus on fixing bugs and security issues, implementing new requirements for platform support, and backporting safe usability enhancements. Patch releases are backwards compatible.\nPatch versions may include minor new features which do not impact the existing API, and thus have no risk of impacting existing projects.\nTip\nUpdating to new patch versions is therefore considered safe and strongly recommended to all users of a given stable branch.\nWe call major.minor combinations stable branches. Each stable branch starts with a major.minor release (without the 0 for patch) and is further developed for maintenance releases in a Git branch of the same name (for example patch updates for the 4.0 stable branch are developed in the 4.0 Git branch).`

Also, make backups of your project or use version control to prevent losing data in case the upgrade goes wrong.\nThat said, we do our best to keep minor and especially patch releases compatible with existing projects.\nThe general recommendation is to upgrade your project to follow new patch releases, such as upgrading from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3. This ensures you get bug fixes, security updates and platform support updates (which is especially important for mobile platforms). You also get continued support, as only the last patch release receives support on official community platforms.\nFor minor releases, you should determine whether it's a good idea to upgrade on a case-by-case basis. We've made a lot of effort in making the upgrade process as seamless as possible, but some breaking changes may be present in minor releases, along with a greater risk of regressions. Some fixes included in minor releases may also change a class' expected behavior as required to fix some bugs. This is especially the case in classes marked as experimental in the documentation.\nMajor releases bring a lot of new functionality, but they also remove previously existing functionality and may raise hardware requirements. They also require much more work to upgrade to compared to minor releases. As a result, we recommend sticking with the major release you've started your project with if you are happy with how your project currently works. For example, if your project was started with 3.5, we recommend upgrading to 3.5.2 and possibly 3.6 in the future, but not to 4.0+, unless your project really needs the new features that come with 4.0+.`

   - Return ONLY JSON array. No markdown fences. No comments.

   I will construct the JSON carefully. I'll make sure to escape newlines in strings properly for JSON. I'll combine the content into single strings with `\n` for newlines.

   Let's draft the JSON array.
   I will verify each field type.
   `chunk_id`: string

   `api_symbols`: array of strings
   `token_count`: integer
   `metadata`: object

   All good. I will generate the JSON now.
   One minor thing: The prompt says "Return only valid JSON. No markdown. No comments." So I will output raw JSON starting with `[` and ending with `]`.
   I'll ensure proper escaping of quotes and newlines in the content strings.
   I'll double check the `source_file` and `source_sha256` constraints. They are exact.
   I'll make sure `doc_type` is exactly one of the allowed values. `about` is allowed.
   I'll make sure `chunk_id` matches regex. `godot-stable:pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md#section-0001` matches `^godot-\w+:\S+`.
   All set.
   Generating. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   I should check if `code_blocks` or `language_tags` have any. The markdown doesn't have explicit code blocks (```), just inline text. So empty lists are fine.
   I will format the JSON carefully.
   I'll produce exactly 7 records as planned.
   Ready. 
   Output matches the requested format.✅
   Proceeds. 
   [Output Generation] -> JSON array.

   *Self-Correction/Verification during generation prep*: 
   Check `section_path`: The prompt says "heading hierarchy". For a single section, it's just `["Godot release policy"]`. That's fine.
   Check `token_count`: I'll estimate roughly based on word count. ~50-300 is fine.
   Check `metadata`: `{}` is fine.
   All good.
   Output matches exactly.✅

Also, make backups of your project or use version control to prevent losing data in case the upgrade goes wrong.\\nThat said, we do our best to keep minor and especially patch releases compatible with existing projects.\\nThe general recommendation is to upgrade your project to follow new patch releases, such as upgrading from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3. This ensures you get bug fixes, security updates and platform support updates (which is especially important for mobile platforms). You also get continued support, as only the last patch release receives support on official community platforms.\\nFor minor releases, you should determine whether it's a good idea to upgrade on a case-by-case basis. We've made a lot of effort in making the upgrade process as seamless as possible, but some breaking changes may be present in minor releases, along with a greater risk of regressions. Some fixes included in minor releases may also change a class' expected behavior as required to fix some bugs. This is especially the case in classes marked as experimental in the documentation.\\nMajor releases bring a lot of new functionality, but they also remove previously existing functionality and may raise hardware requirements. They also require much more work to upgrade to compared to minor releases. As a result, we recommend sticking with the major release you've started your project with if you are happy with how your project currently works. For example, if your project was started with 3.5, we recommend upgrading to 3.5.2 and possibly 3.6 in the future, but not to 4.0+, unless your project really needs the new features that come with 4.0+.\",\"code_blocks\":[],\"language_tags\":[],\"godot_version_tags\":[\"4.0.2\",\"4.0.3\",\"3.5\",\"3.5.2\",\"3.6\",\"4.0+\"],\"api_symbols\":[],\"token_count\":220,\"metadata\":{}},{\"chunk_id\":\"godot-stable:pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md#section-0006\",\"doc_version\":\"stable\",\"source_url\":\"https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/release_policy.html\",\"source_file\":\"pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md\",\"source_sha256\":\"97886257e635e7282bce8c417c2193a2aa9c41e62319a9e24774b5c13c06dbdc\",\"doc_type\":\"about\",\"symbol\":\"\",\"section_path\":[\"When is the next release out?\"],\"heading\":\"When is the next release out?\",\"content\":\"When is the next release out?\\n\\nWhile Godot contributors aren't working under any deadlines, we strive to publish minor releases relatively frequently.\\nIn particular, after the very long release cycle for 4.0, we are pivoting to a faster-paced development workflow, 4.1 released 4 months after 4.0, and 4.2 released 4 months after 4.1.\\nFrequent minor releases will enable us to ship new features faster (possibly as experimental), get user feedback quickly, and iterate to improve those features and their usability.

The list is not exhaustive; it only outlines the most common situations encountered during Godot's development.\\nThe following changes are acceptable in patch releases:\\nFixing a bug in a way that has no major negative impact on most projects, such as a visual or physics bug. Godot's physics engine is not deterministic, so physics bug fixes are not considered to break compatibility. If fixing a bug has a negative impact that could impact a lot of projects, it should be made optional (e.g. using a project setting or separate method).\\nAdding a new optional parameter to a method.\\nSmall-scale editor usability tweaks.\\nNote that we tend to be more conservative with the fixes we allow in each subsequent patch release. For instance, 4.0.1 may receive more impactful fixes than 4.0.4 would.\\nThe following changes are acceptable in minor releases, but not patch releases:\\nSignificant new features.\\nRenaming a method parameter. In C#, method parameters can be passed by name (but not in GDScript). As a result, this can break some projects that use C#.\\nDeprecating a method, member variable, or class. This is done by adding a deprecated flag to its class reference, which will show up in the editor. When a method is marked as deprecated, it's slated to be removed in the next major release.\\nChanges that affect the default project theme's visuals.\\nBug fixes which significantly change the behavior or the output, with the aim to meet user expectations better. In comparison, in patch releases, we may favor keeping a buggy behavior so we don't break existing projects which likely already rely on the bug or use a workaround.\\nPerformance optimizations that result in visual changes.\\nThe following changes are considered compatibility-breaking and can only be performed in a new major release:\\nRenaming or removing a method, member variable, or class.\\nModifying a node's inheritance tree by making it inherit from a different class.\\nChanging the default value of a project setting value in a way that affects existing projects. To only affect new projects, the project manager should write a modified project.godot instead.\\nSince Godot 5.0 hasn't been branched off yet, we currently discourage making compatibility-breaking changes of this kind.\\nNote\\nWhen modifying a method's signature in any fashion (including adding an optional parameter), a GDExtension compatibility method must be created.\\nThis ensures that existing GDExtensions continue to work across patch and minor releases, so that users don't have to recompile them.\\nSee Handling compatibility breakages for more information.\",\"code_blocks\":[],\"language_tags\":[],\"godot_version_tags\":[\"4.0.1\",\"4.0.4\",\"5.0\"],\"api_symbols\":[\"GDExtension\"],\"token_count\":330,\"metadata\":{}}]",

Also, make backups of your project or use version control to prevent losing data in case the upgrade goes wrong.\\nThat said, we do our best to keep minor and especially patch releases compatible with existing projects.\\nThe general recommendation is to upgrade your project to follow new patch releases, such as upgrading from 4.0.2 to 4.0.3. This ensures you get bug fixes, security updates and platform support updates (which is especially important for mobile platforms). You also get continued support, as only the last patch release receives support on official community platforms.\\nFor minor releases, you should determine whether it's a good idea to upgrade on a case-by-case basis. We've made a lot of effort in making the upgrade process as seamless as possible, but some breaking changes may be present in minor releases, along with a greater risk of regressions. Some fixes included in minor releases may also change a class' expected behavior as required to fix some bugs. This is especially the case in classes marked as experimental in the documentation.\\nMajor releases bring a lot of new functionality, but they also remove previously existing functionality and may raise hardware requirements. They also require much more work to upgrade to compared to minor releases. As a result, we recommend sticking with the major release you've started your project with if you are happy with how your project currently works. For example, if your project was started with 3.5, we recommend upgrading to 3.5.2 and possibly 3.6 in the future, but not to 4.0+, unless your project really needs the new features that come with 4.0+.`\n   - `code_blocks`: `[]`\n   - `language_tags`: `[]`\n   - `godot_version_tags`: `[\"4.0.2\", \"4.0.3\", \"3.5\", \"3.5.2\", \"3.6\", \"4.0+\"]`\n   - `api_symbols`: `[]`\n   - `token_count`: ~210\n   - `metadata`: `{}`\n\n   **Chunk 6: When is the next release out?**\n   - `chunk_id`: `godot-stable:pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md#section-0006`\n   - `doc_version`: `stable`\n   - `source_url`: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/release_policy.html`\n   - `source_file`: `pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md`\n   - `source_sha256`: `97886257e635e7282bce8c417c2193a2aa9c41e62319a9e24774b5c13c06dbdc`\n   - `doc_type`: `about`\n   - `symbol`: `\"\"`\n   - `section_path`: `[\"When is the next release out?\"]`\n   - `heading`: `When is the next release out?`\n   - `content`: `When is the next release out?\\n\\nWhile Godot contributors aren't working under any deadlines, we strive to publish minor releases relatively frequently.\\nIn particular, after the very long release cycle for 4.0, we are pivoting to a faster-paced development workflow, 4.1 released 4 months after 4.0, and 4.2 released 4 months after 4.1.\\nFrequent minor releases will enable us to ship new features faster (possibly as experimental), get user feedback quickly, and iterate to improve those features and their usability. Likewise, the general user experience will be improved more steadily with a faster path to the end users.\\nMaintenance (patch) releases are released as needed with potentially very short development cycles, to provide users of the current stable branch with the latest bug fixes for their production needs.\\nThere is currently no planned release date for the next 3.x minor version, 3.7.\\nThe current stable release, 3.6, may be the last stable branch of Godot 3.x.\\nGodot 3.x is supported on a best-effort basis, as long as contributors continue to maintain it.`\n   - `code_blocks`: `[]`\n   - `language_tags`: `[]`\n   - `godot_version_tags`: `[\"4.0\", \"4.1\", \"4.2\", \"3.x\", \"3.7\", \"3.6\"]`\n   - `api_symbols`: `[]`\n   - `token_count`: ~150\n   - `metadata`: `{}`\n\n   **Chunk 7: What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?**\n   - `chunk_id`: `godot-stable:pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md#section-0007`\n   - `doc_version`: `stable`\n   - `source_url`: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/release_policy.html`\n   - `source_file`: `pages/about__release_policy__9f3af805.md`\n   - `source_sha256`: `97886257e635e7282bce8c417c2193a2aa9c41e62319a9e24774b5c13c06dbdc`\n   - `doc_type`: `about`\n   - `symbol`: `\"\"`\n   - `section_path`: `[\"What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?\"]`\n   - `heading`: `What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?`\n   - `content`: `What are the criteria for compatibility across engine versions?\\n\\nNote\\nThis section is intended to be used by contributors to determine which changes are safe for a given release. The list is not exhaustive; it only outlines the most common situations encountered during Godot's development.\\nThe following changes are acceptable in patch releases:\\nFixing a bug in a way that has no major negative impact on most projects, such as a visual or physics bug. Godot's physics engine is not deterministic, so physics bug fixes are not considered to break compatibility. If fixing a bug has a negative impact that could impact a lot of projects, it should be made optional (e.g. using a project setting or separate method).\\nAdding a new optional parameter to a method.\\nSmall-scale editor usability tweaks.\\nNote that we tend to be more conservative with the fixes we allow in each subsequent patch release. For instance, 4.0.1 may receive more impactful fixes than 4.0.4 would.\\nThe following changes are acceptable in minor releases, but not patch releases:\\nSignificant new features.\\nRenaming a method parameter. In C#, method parameters can be passed by name (but not in GDScript). As a result, this can break some projects that use C#.\\nDeprecating a method, member variable, or class. This is done by adding a deprecated flag to its class reference, which will show up in the editor. When a method is marked as deprecated, it's slated to be removed in the next major release.\\nChanges that affect the default project theme's visuals.\\nBug fixes which significantly change the behavior or the output, with the aim to meet user expectations better. In comparison, in patch releases, we may favor keeping a buggy behavior so we don't break existing projects which likely already rely on the bug or use a workaround.\\nPerformance optimizations that result in visual changes.\\nThe following changes are considered compatibility-breaking and can only be performed in a new major release:\\nRenaming or removing a method, member variable, or class.\\nModifying a node's inheritance tree by making it inherit from a different class.\\nChanging the default value of a project setting value in a way that affects existing projects. To only affect new projects, the project manager should write a modified project.godot instead.\\nSince Godot 5.0 hasn't been branched off yet, we currently discourage making compatibility-breaking changes of this kind.\\nNote\\nWhen modifying a method's signature in any fashion (including adding an optional parameter), a GDExtension compatibility method must be created.\\nThis ensures that existing GDExtensions continue to work across patch and minor releases, so that users don't have to recompile them.\\nSee Handling compatibility breakages for more information.`\n   - `code_blocks`: `[]`\n   - `language_tags`: `[]`\n   - `godot_version_tags`: `[\"4.0.1\", \"4.0.4\", \"5.0\"]`\n   - `api_symbols`: `[\"GDExtension\"]`\n   - `token_count`: ~320\n   - `metadata`: `{}`\n\n3.  **Validate against Constraints:**\n   - `chunk_id`: matches `^godot-\\w+:\\S+`?

Warning
The requirements below are a baseline for a
simple
2D or 3D project,
with basic scripting and few visual flourishes. CPU, GPU, RAM and
storage requirements will heavily vary depending on your project's scope,
its renderer, viewport resolution and graphics settings chosen.
Other programs running on the system while the project is running
will also compete for resources, including RAM and video RAM.
It is strongly recommended to do your own testing on low-end hardware to
make sure your project runs at the desired speed. To provide scalability for
low-end hardware, you will also need to introduce a
graphics options menu
to your project.

Conversion Response Reasoning Content

Here's a thinking process:

1.  **Analyze User Input:**
   - **Table:** `docs_chunks`
   - **Required Fields:** `chunk_id`, `doc_version`, `source_url`, `source_file`, `source_sha256`, `doc_type`, `symbol`, `section_path`, `heading`, `content`, `code_blocks`, `language_tags`, `godot_version_tags`, `api_symbols`, `token_count`, `metadata`
   - **Rules:**
     - `chunk_id`: Must match `^godot-\w+:\S+`. Use deterministic like `godot-stable:pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md#section-0001`. Never `chunk_0` or plain numeric.
     - `doc_version`: e.g., `stable`, `latest`, `4.6`, `unknown`.
     - `source_url`: original docs URL if known, else `""`.
     - `source_file`: MUST be `pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md`.
     - `source_sha256`: MUST be `ec1de3531b1038ee9003b6fd79b98184967cf13a95159575513ceac6c9349149` when field exists.
     - `doc_type`: exactly one of `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. Never `article`.
     - `symbol`: class/API symbol or `""`.
     - `section_path`: list[str] heading hierarchy.
     - `heading`: section heading.
     - `content`: searchable body text.
     - `code_blocks`: list[str] extracted code blocks.
     - `language_tags`: list[str] detected code languages.
     - `godot_version_tags`: list[str] version hints.
     - `api_symbols`: list[str] detected Godot symbols.
     - `token_count`: int estimated token count.
     - `metadata`: dict extra metadata.
   - **Input Markdown:** A documentation page about Godot 4.6 system requirements. It has sections like "System requirements", "Godot editor", "Desktop or laptop PC - Minimum", "Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Minimum", "Exported Godot project", etc.
   - **Output Format:** JSON array of records. No markdown fences, no explanation.

2.  **Determine Chunking Strategy:**
   The prompt asks for "documentation chunk records". I should split the markdown into logical chunks based on headings. I'll create one record per major section to keep it manageable, or maybe just one record for the whole page if it's short, but splitting by top-level headings is usually better for RAG. Let's look at the structure:
   - `# Source: https://...` (header)
   - `Godot Engine 4.6 documentation in English`
   - `System requirements` (H1/H2?)
   - `Godot editor` (H2)
     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Minimum` (H3)
     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Minimum` (H3)
     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Recommended` (H3)
     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Recommended` (H3)
   - `Exported Godot project` (H2)
     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Minimum` (H3)
     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Minimum` (H3)
     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Recommended` (H3)
     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Recommended` (H3)
   - `Note` (H3)

   I'll create chunks for each major section to keep `content` focused. I'll aim for ~4-5 chunks.
   Let's define chunks:
   1. `godot-stable:pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md#section-0001` -> "System requirements" (intro + Godot editor min)
   2. `...#section-0002` -> "Godot editor recommended"
   3. `...#section-0003` -> "Exported Godot project min"
   4. `...#section-0004` -> "Exported Godot project recommended + Note"

   Actually, to be safe and follow typical chunking, I'll make one chunk per top-level heading under "System requirements". But the prompt says "Return a JSON array of documentation chunk records." I'll just create a few logical chunks. Let's stick to 3 chunks for simplicity and completeness, or maybe just 1 chunk for the whole page if it's better. I'll go with 3 chunks covering the main sections.

   Let's carefully extract content for each chunk.
   I need to ensure `section_path` is a list of strings representing the heading hierarchy.
   `heading` is the section heading.
   `content` is the body text.
   `code_blocks` and `language_tags` are empty since there are no code blocks in this markdown.
   `godot_version_tags`: `["4.6"]`
   `api_symbols`: `[]`
   `symbol`: `""`
   `doc_type`: `about` (since it's system requirements/about page)
   `doc_version`: `stable` (from URL `en/stable/`)

   Let's verify constraints:
   - `chunk_id` matches `^godot-\w+:\S+` -> `godot-stable:pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md#section-0001` etc. OK.
   - `doc_version`: `stable` OK.
   - `source_url`: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/system_requirements.html` OK.
   - `source_file`: `pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md` OK.
   - `source_sha256`: `ec1de3531b1038ee9003b6fd79b98184967cf13a95159575513ceac6c9349149` OK.
   - `doc_type`: `about` OK.
   - `symbol`: `""` OK.
   - `section_path`: list of strings. OK.
   - `heading`: string. OK.
   - `content`: string. OK.
   - `code_blocks`: `[]` OK.
   - `language_tags`: `[]` OK.
   - `godot_version_tags`: `["4.6"]` OK.
   - `api_symbols`: `[]` OK.
   - `token_count`: int. OK.
   - `metadata`: `{}` OK.

   I will format the JSON carefully. I'll make sure newlines in content are preserved as `\n`.
   I'll double check the exact field names and types.
   All good.
   One minor thing: `section_path` should reflect the hierarchy. For chunk 1, it's `["System requirements"]`. For chunk 2, `["System requirements", "Godot editor", "Desktop or laptop PC - Recommended"]`. For chunk 3, `["System requirements", "Exported Godot project"]`. This is fine.
   I will generate the JSON array now.
   I'll ensure no markdown code fences are used.
   I'll verify regex for chunk_id: `^godot-\w+:\S+` -> `godot-stable:pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md#section-0001` matches.
   All constraints met.
   Proceed. 
   Output matches exactly.
   One detail: `token_count` estimation. I'll just put reasonable numbers like 320, 360, 720.
   I will construct the JSON carefully.
   Let's produce it. 
   Self-Correction/Refinement during thought: 
   The prompt says "Return ONLY a JSON array — no markdown code fences, no explanation."
   I will make sure the output is raw JSON.
   I'll check `doc_type` options: `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. I used `about`. That's correct.
   `source_url` from markdown: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/system_requirements.html`
   `source_file`: `pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md`
   `source_sha256`: `ec1de3531b1038ee9003b6fd79b98184967cf13a95159575513ceac6c9349149`
   All set.
   Generating. 
   [Output Generation] -> JSON array.✅
   Note: I'll escape newlines properly in JSON strings.
   I will structure it carefully.
   Done. 
   Output matches response. 
   Proceeds. 
   [Final Check of the Prompt]
   "chunk_id (str): MUST match regex ^godot-\w+:\S+. Use a deterministic value like godot-stable:pages/about__intro.md#section-0001."
   "doc_version (str): docs version such as stable, latest, 4.6, or unknown."
   "source_url (str): original docs URL if known, otherwise empty string."
   "source_file (str): exact local markdown path provided by the caller." -> `pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md`
   "source_sha256 (str): exact sha256 provided by the caller." -> `ec1de3531b1038ee9003b6fd79b98184967cf13a95159575513ceac6c9349149`
   "doc_type (str): exactly one of class_reference, tutorial, migration, engine_details, about, other. Never use article."
   "symbol (str): class/API symbol or empty string."
   "section_path (list[str]): heading hierarchy."
   "heading (str): section heading."
   "content (str): searchable body text."
   "code_blocks (list[str]): extracted code blocks."
   "language_tags (list[str]): detected code languages."
   "godot_version_tags (list[str]): version hints."
   "api_symbols (list[str]): detected Godot symbols."
   "token_count (int): estimated token count."
   "metadata (dict): any extra metadata."
   All good.
   I will produce the JSON now. 
   One thing: I'll make sure the JSON is valid. I'll escape quotes if any, but there are none in the content. Newlines will be `\n`.
   Ready. 
   Output generation. 
   [Done] 
   *(Self-Correction/Verification during drafting)*
   I should verify that `section_path` for chunk 1 is just `["System requirements"]` or maybe `["Godot Engine 4.6 documentation in English", "System requirements"]`. The markdown starts with `# Source: ...` then `Godot Engine 4.6 documentation in English` then `System requirements`. I'll stick to `["System requirements"]` as it's the main heading. It's fine.
   I'll ensure `token_count` is an integer.
   All fields present.
   Proceeds. 
   Output matches the final JSON. 
   [Output Generation] -> *Proceeds*

  "reasoning_content": "Here's a thinking process:\n\n1.  **Analyze User Input:**\n   - **Table:** `docs_chunks`\n   - **Required Fields:** `chunk_id`, `doc_version`, `source_url`, `source_file`, `source_sha256`, `doc_type`, `symbol`, `section_path`, `heading`, `content`, `code_blocks`, `language_tags`, `godot_version_tags`, `api_symbols`, `token_count`, `metadata`\n   - **Rules:**\n     - `chunk_id`: Must match `^godot-\\w+:\\S+`. Use deterministic like `godot-stable:pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md#section-0001`. Never `chunk_0` or plain numeric.\n     - `doc_version`: e.g., `stable`, `latest`, `4.6`, `unknown`.\n     - `source_url`: original docs URL if known, else `\"\"`.\n     - `source_file`: MUST be `pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md`.\n     - `source_sha256`: MUST be `ec1de3531b1038ee9003b6fd79b98184967cf13a95159575513ceac6c9349149` when field exists.\n     - `doc_type`: exactly one of `class_reference`, `tutorial`, `migration`, `engine_details`, `about`, `other`. Never `article`.\n     - `symbol`: class/API symbol or `\"\"`.\n     - `section_path`: list[str] heading hierarchy.\n     - `heading`: section heading.\n     - `content`: searchable body text.\n     - `code_blocks`: list[str] extracted code blocks.\n     - `language_tags`: list[str] detected code languages.\n     - `godot_version_tags`: list[str] version hints.\n     - `api_symbols`: list[str] detected Godot symbols.\n     - `token_count`: int estimated token count.\n     - `metadata`: dict extra metadata.\n   - **Input Markdown:** A documentation page about Godot 4.6 system requirements. It has sections like \"System requirements\", \"Godot editor\", \"Desktop or laptop PC - Minimum\", \"Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Minimum\", \"Exported Godot project\", etc.\n   - **Output Format:** JSON array of records. No markdown fences, no explanation.\n\n2.  **Determine Chunking Strategy:**\n   The prompt asks for \"documentation chunk records\". I should split the markdown into logical chunks based on headings. I'll create one record per major section to keep it manageable, or maybe just one record for the whole page if it's short, but splitting by top-level headings is usually better for RAG. Let's look at the structure:\n   - `# Source: https://...` (header)\n   - `Godot Engine 4.6 documentation in English`\n   - `System requirements` (H1/H2?)\n   - `Godot editor` (H2)\n     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Minimum` (H3)\n     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Minimum` (H3)\n     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Recommended` (H3)\n     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Recommended` (H3)\n   - `Exported Godot project` (H2)\n     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Minimum` (H3)\n     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Minimum` (H3)\n     - `Desktop or laptop PC - Recommended` (H3)\n     - `Mobile device (smartphone/tablet) - Recommended` (H3)\n   - `Note` (H3)\n\n   I'll create chunks for each major section to keep `content` focused. I'll aim for ~4-5 chunks.\n   Let's define chunks:\n   1. `godot-stable:pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md#section-0001` -> \"System requirements\" (intro + Godot editor min)\n   2. `...#section-0002` -> \"Godot editor recommended\"\n   3. `...#section-0003` -> \"Exported Godot project min\"\n   4. `...#section-0004` -> \"Exported Godot project recommended + Note\"\n\n   Actually, to be safe and follow typical chunking, I'll make one chunk per top-level heading under \"System requirements\". But the prompt says \"Return a JSON array of documentation chunk records.\" I'll just create a few logical chunks. Let's stick to 3 chunks for simplicity and completeness, or maybe just 1 chunk for the whole page if it's better. I'll go with 3 chunks covering the main sections.\n\n   Let's carefully extract content for each chunk.\n   I need to ensure `section_path` is a list of strings representing the heading hierarchy.\n   `heading` is the section heading.\n   `content` is the body text.\n   `code_blocks` and `language_tags` are empty since there are no code blocks in this markdown.\n   `godot_version_tags`: `[\"4.6\"]`\n   `api_symbols`: `[]`\n   `symbol`: `\"\"`\n   `doc_type`: `about` (since it's system requirements/about page)\n   `doc_version`: `stable` (from URL `en/stable/`)\n   `source_url`: `https://docs.godotengine.org/en/stable/about/system_requirements.html`\n   `source_file`: `pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md`\n   `source_sha256`: `ec1de3531b1038ee9003b6fd79b98184967cf13a95159575513ceac6c9349149`\n\n   Let's draft Chunk 1:\n   - chunk_id: `godot-stable:pages/about__system_requirements__6f1863c2.md#section-0001`\n   - heading: `System requirements`\n   - section_path: `[\"System requirements\"]`\n   - content: `Godot Engine 4.6 documentation in English\\nSystem requirements\\nEdit on GitHub\\nLearn how to contribute!\\nSystem requirements\\n\\nThis page contains system requirements for the editor and exported projects.\\nThese specifications are given for informative purposes only, but they can be\\nreferred to if you're looking to build or upgrade a system to use Godot on.\\nGodot editor\\n\\nThese are the\\nminimum\\nspecifications required to run the Godot editor and work\\non a simple 2D or 3D project:\\nDesktop or laptop PC - Minimum\\n\\nCPU\\nWindows:\\nx86_32 CPU with SSE2 support, x86_64 CPU with SSE4.2 support, ARMv8 CPU\\nExample: Intel Core 2 Duo E8200, AMD FX-4100, Snapdragon X Elite\\nmacOS:\\nx86_64 or ARM CPU (Apple Silicon)\\nExample: Intel Core 2 Duo SU9400, Apple M1\\nLinux:\\nx86_32 CPU with SSE2 support, x86_64 CPU with SSE4.2 support, ARMv7 or\\nARMv8 CPU\\nExample: Intel Core 2 Duo E8200, AMD FX-4100, Raspberry Pi 4\\nGPU\\nForward+ renderer:\\nIntegrated graphics with full Vulkan 1.0 support\\nExample: Intel HD Graphics 510 (Skylake), AMD Radeon R5 Graphics (Kaveri)\\nMobile renderer:\\nIntegrated graphics with full Vulkan 1.0 support\\nExample: Intel HD Graphics 510 (Skylake), AMD Radeon R5 Graphics (Kaveri)\\nCompatibility renderer:\\nIntegrated graphics with full OpenGL 3.3 support\\nExample: Intel HD Graphics 2500 (Ivy Bridge), AMD Radeon R5 Graphics (Kaveri)\\nRAM\\nNative editor:\\n4 GB\\nWeb editor:\\n8 GB\\nStorage\\n200 MB (used for the executable, project files and cache).\\nExporting projects requires downloading export templates separately\\n(1.3 GB after installation).\\nOperating system\\nNative editor:\\nWindows 10, macOS 10.13 (Compatibility) or\\nmacOS 10.15 (Forward+/Mobile), Linux distribution released after 2018\\nWeb editor:\\nRecent versions of mainstream browsers: Firefox and derivatives\\n(including ESR), Chrome and Chromium derivatives, Safari and WebKit derivatives.\\nNote\\nIf your x86_64 CPU does not support SSE4.2, you can still run the 32-bit Godot\\nexecutable which only has a SSE2 requirement (all x86_64 CPUs support SSE2).\\nWhile supported on Linux, we have no official minimum requirements for running on\\nrv64 (RISC-V), ppc64 & ppc32 (PowerPC), and loongarch64.
