# Limitations

The philosophy of mruby is to be a lightweight implementation of
the Ruby ISO standard. These two objectives are partially contradicting.
Ruby is an expressive language with complex implementation details which
are difficult to implement in a lightweight manner. To cope with this,
limitations to the "Ruby Compatibility" are defined.

This document is collecting these limitations.
