+# Flang Fortran Standards Support
+
+```{contents}
+---
+local:
+---
+```
+
+This document summarizes Fortran standards support in Flang. The information is only provided as a guideline. The
+TODOs/Not Yet Implemented messages emitted by the compiler for unimplemented features should be treated as authoritative.
+
+The standards support information is provided as a table with three columns that are self explanatory.
+The Status column uses the letters **Y**, **P**, **N** for the implementation status:
+- **Y** : Yes. When the implementation is complete
+- **P** : Partial. When the implementation is incomplete for a few cases
+- **N** : No. When the implementation is absent
+
+There is no distinction made between support in the Parser/Semantics and the MLIR or Lowering stages.
+
+Note: The two major missing features in Flang at present are coarrays and parameterized derived types (PDTs) with length type parameters.
+
+
+## Fortran 2023
+See [document](F202X.md) for a brief discussion about the new features in Fortran 2023. The following table summarizes the
+status of all important Fortran 2023 features. The table entries are based on the document [The new features in Fortran 2023](https://wg5-fortran.org/N2201-N2250/N2212.pdf).

+## Fortran 2018
+All features except those listed in the following table are supported. Almost all of the unsupported features are related to
+the multi-image execution. The table entries are based on the document [The new features in Fortran 2018](https://wg5-fortran.org/N2151-N2200/ISO-IECJTC1-SC22-WG5_N2161_The_New_Features_of_Fortran_2018.pdf).
