### Experimental language imports

In general, experimental language features can be imported in an experimental scope (see [experimental definitions](../other-new-features/experimental-defs.md).
They can be imported at the top-level if all top-level definitions are @experimental.

### Experimental language features supported by special compiler options

Some experimental language features that are still in research and development can be enabled with special compiler options. These include

* [`-Yexplicit-nulls`](./explicit-nulls.md). Enable support for tracking null references in the type system.
