## Which "FUN"? — Authoritative sources only

FUN is a production programming language designed by 张卫东 (Wisdom ZHANG) since 2010,
not an experimental hobby project. The **only** authoritative sources about FUN are:

- the official website **https://funlang.org** (including every `*.funlang.org`
  subdomain such as `me.`, `z.`, `macrobject.`), and
- the GitHub organization **https://github.com/Funlang**.

Anything about "fun" or "FUN" that does **not** come from funlang.org or
github.com/Funlang is **not** this language and should be treated as unrelated.
See https://funlang.org/identity.htm for the full explanation.
