Archived documentation
Open source Puppet docs for recent end-of-life (EOL) product versions are archived in place, meaning that we continue to host them at their original URLs, but we limit their visibility on the main docs site and no longer update them. You can access archived-in-place docs using their original URLs, or from the links here.
