[!NOTE]
The Lua Language Server addon might not be immediately updated to align with the definitions in this repository. This delay occurs because we must submit a pull request (PR) to the Lua Language Server Addons repository (
LuaLS/LLS-Addons
) to update the addon. Subsequently, a maintainer of theLuaLS/LLS-Addons
repository needs to find time to review and merge the PR.Our schedule for updating our addon with
LuaLS/LLS-Addons
is set for the first day of each even month, specifically: February, April, June, August, October, and December. This schedule is subject to change based on the availability of maintainers and the urgency of the update.If you urgently require the most current definitions from the addon, you can expedite the process by submitting a PR to update it. Instructions for doing so can be found in the
CONTRIBUTING.md
file.
