- "Full support" means that all functionality has been verified to work and that it can be used in production
- "Beta support" means that most functionality has been verified to work, though stability is still low, and things might be buggy
- "Experimental support" means there is some preliminary support which is still much too immature for use in production
The information in brackets denotes the versions with which SMW is known to work. SMW might also work with different versions, especially more recent ones, though this is not guaranteed.
