     The ``opcodes`` and ``opcodes_runtime`` output of the compiler has been returning incorrect opcodes since ``0.2.0`` due to a lack of 0 padding (patched via `PR 3735 <https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper/pull/3735>`_). If you rely on these functions for debugging, please use the latest patched versions.

+Enabling Experimental Code Generation
+===========================
+
+When compiling, you can use the CLI flag ``--experimental-codegen`` or its alias ``--venom`` to activate the new `Venom IR <https://github.com/vyperlang/vyper/blob/master/vyper/venom/README.md>`_.
+Venom IR is inspired by LLVM IR and enables new advanced analysis and optimizations.

 The EVM version can be set with the ``evm-version`` pragma, which is documented in :ref:`evm-version`.
 
+Experimental Code Generation
+-----------------
+The new experimental code generation feature can be activated using the following directive:
+
+.. code-block:: vyper
+
+   #pragma experimental-codegen
+
+Alternatively, you can use the alias ``"venom"`` instead of ``"experimental-codegen"``  to enable this feature.
