 ### 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:
+`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{} }
+fn User.new() User {
+	return User{}
+}
 
 user := User.new()
 ```
 
+This is an alternative to factory functions like `fn new_user() User {}` and should be used
+instead.
+
+Note, that these are not constructors, but simple functions. V doesn't have constructors or
+classes.
+
 ### `[noinit]` structs
 
 V supports `[noinit]` structs, which are structs that cannot be initialised outside the module
