The <a href="/api/">Lombok javadoc</a> is available, but we advise these pages.
<p>
Experimental features are available in your normal lombok installation, but are not as robustly supported as lombok's main features. In particular, experimental features:
<ul>
<li>
Are not tested as well as the core features.
</li><li>
Do not get bugs fixed as quickly as core features.
</li><li>
May have APIs that will change, possibly drastically if we find a different, better way to solve the same problem.
</li><li>
May disappear entirely if the feature is too difficult to support or doesn't bust enough boilerplate.
</li>
</ul>
</p><p>
Features that receive positive community feedback and which seem to produce clean, flexible code will eventually become accepted as a core feature and move out of the experimental package.
