# Welcome to Ren'Py's documentation!

We're in the process of rewriting Ren'Py's documentation. While what we have here is the most up-to-date documentation, it's also very incomplete. To find out more about Ren'Py, please visit the Ren'Py home page:

Much of Ren'Py is only documented in the older documentation, which is stored in the Ren'Py Wiki:
