Thanks! While working on this, whenever I would browse another language project's site I got into the habit of asking myself what I wanted to see, in what order. For better or worse, I really want to see a language's syntax first. I think it gives some context, and helps readers connect the concepts of a language to something more visual and concrete.

I agree that it's a wonderful page (although the :symbols confused me a bit), and I want to add that the simplicity of the page, size and lack of complex (almost any) Javascript harks back to how I remember the web when it started.

A clear and concise webpage that gets the message across perfectly without needing megabytes of 'content'.

> without needing megabytes of 'content'.

Although having some MB of an online REPL/Compiler to try the language is _really_ convenient. But not something that should get priority for such a "small" (userbase) language.
