Creates an new object of type val. The parent argument is optional; If it
is supplied, the object will be parented to that object.

**Performance note:** When the `Class.Instance.Parent|Parent` of an object is
set, Luau listens to a variety of different property changes
for replication, rendering and physics. Therefore, it is recommended to
**set the Parent property last** when creating new objects. As such, you
should avoid using the second argument (`parent`) of this function. You
can read [this thread on the developer
forum](https://devforum.roblox.com/t/psa-dont-use-instance-new-with-parent-argument/30296)
for more information.

Attempting to access this member in scripts causes an error. You might be able to access this member from Roblox Studio's property window.

This member doesn’t appear in Roblox Studio’s Object Browser.

You can’t create an instance of this class with the Instance.new constructor.

Roblox does not replicate this member across its server-client boundary.

Lua code can’t access this member. You might be able to change its value from the property window in Roblox Studio.

This object’s replication behavior is dependent on the player who owns it.

This member is accessible only through the command bar and plugins only. Attempting to access this member from scripts causes an error.

This property is read-only and is safe to read in unsynchronized threads. Attempting to write to it causes an error.
