# Description

## Problem\*

Description of Noir on the page is outdated and not fully accurate:
- Implies support for SNARK proving systems only
- Defines ZKP as Zero-Knowledge _Programs_

## Summary\*

This PR updates the descriptions accordingly.

## Documentation\*

Check one:
- [x] No documentation needed.
- [ ] Documentation included in this PR.
- [ ] **[For Experimental Features]** Documentation to be submitted in a
separate PR.

# PR Checklist\*

Noir is a Domain-Specific Language for SNARK proving systems developed by [Aztec Labs](https://aztec.network/). It allows you to generate complex Zero-Knowledge Programs (ZKP) by using simple and flexible syntax, requiring no previous knowledge on the underlying mathematics or cryptography.
Noir is an open-source Domain-Specific Language for safe and seamless construction of privacy-preserving Zero-Knowledge programs, requiring no previous knowledge on the underlying mathematics or cryptography.

ZK programs are programs that can generate short proofs of a certain statement without revealing some details about it. You can read more about ZKPs [here](https://dev.to/spalladino/a-beginners-intro-to-coding-zero-knowledge-proofs-c56).
