This will likely change pretty quickly as we build this feature; I wrote this just to have a central place to keep track of what we'll need to document when we ship this feature.

Guest users
This page documents how guest users work in Zulip. This documentation attempts to cover the current state first, and then the to-be-implemented restrictions.
Guest users are like normal users in Zulip, except that they cannot do the following:
- Join public streams without being added by another user.
- Access message history on public streams.
- Create streams (public or private)
- Create or own bots users
For many of these limitations, we haven't yet hidden the relevant section(s) of the UI, and the prototype guest user experience will feel buggy until we hide those features.
Limitations to be implemented:
- Manage streams (e.g. Add other users to a stream they are subscribed to)
- See streams they are not subscribed to.
- Interact with user groups
- Send private messages to users not in a stream with them.
(And more, this is an initial high-level TODO list).
