Please make sure you talk to the community before creating an issue.

Describe the bug The Escoria documentation is confusingly out of date and following the instructions literally will not work.

Should clarify:

Sorry to pile on an old issue, but...

version number needed (Godot 4 will not work with Escoria; 3.5.2 is supported)

I don't think this part was actually fixed by https://github.com/godot-escoria/escoria-docs/pull/71. Finding that information anywhere is still hard.

Directions to create an Escoria project reference the Template Library version; which is years out of date. Should direct people to clone the relevant repositories instead.

This is probably me being a newbie with Godot/Escoria, but the text added in commit https://github.com/godot-escoria/escoria-docs/pull/71/commits/650e18b39adc08380c8e663a2f81513f37e9912e didn't actually help me. Especially "copy over the addons folder" is confusing. Over to where? I'm afraid I still don't know how I should start an Escoria project.
