.. only:: i18n .. note:: This documentation is translated from the `original English one <https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest>`_ by community members on `Weblate <https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/godot-engine/godot-docs>`_. Depending on the translation effort's completion level, you may find paragraphs or whole pages which are still in English. You can help the community by providing new translations or reviewing existing ones on Weblate. For the time being, localized translations are only available for the "latest" (development) branch, but should be suitable to learn how to use stable Godot releases nevertheless.
