+# Claro Graphics Status
+
+Current release: **Claro v1.18.26**
+
+Graphics support is intentionally separated from the stable beginner console workflow.
+
+## Beginner-safe track
+
+Use these today:
+- console output with `SAY`
+- text-based examples
+- placeholder graphics docs/examples only when clearly marked experimental
+
+This keeps Claro portable and easy to run on Windows, Linux, macOS, classrooms, and older laptops.
+
+## Experimental SDL track
+
+Real SDL/window support is planned or experimental, not part of the stable `claro.exe` path yet.
+
+Before SDL is treated as beginner-ready, Claro should have:
+- an optional build flag/backend
+- clear dependency checks
+- friendly "graphics unavailable" errors
+- tiny drawing examples
+- keyboard input examples
+- validation that non-graphics Claro still works without SDL installed
+
