+### Static type methods
+
+V now supports static type methods like `User.new()`. These are defined on a struct via
+`fn [Type name].[function name] and allow to organize all functions related to a struct:
+
+```v oksyntax
+struct User { }
+
+fn User.new() User { return User{} }
+
+user := User.new()
+```
+
 ### `[noinit]` structs
 
 V supports `[noinit]` structs, which are structs that cannot be initialised outside the module
