Experimental Features¶
When DataKit is released, some experimental features are included. These features are often newly released functions, and some implementations may have some considerations or inaccuracies:
- The functions may be unstable.
- Some function configurations may not guarantee compatibility during subsequent iterations.
- The functions may be removed, but there will be corresponding alternative measures to meet the corresponding requirements.
