There's no explanation of how to use it, or even a code snippet. And the documentation is down. So not very useful I'm afraid :(

I've always thought that tech websites often start with the wrong thing, with installation instructions front & centre like this one.

If I'm coming to the website looking for that info I'll be happy to dig around a little bit to find it. If I'm coming to the website as a curious observer that information is not useful, it's wasting space that could be used demonstrating _why_ I'd want to install it.

Same. Installed it. Couldn't find a small thing I could play around with. Clicked on the docs link and got an error. Very disappointing.

The documentation was hosted on another site, and at least one version of it has moved to https://docs.racket-lang.org/video/index.html. Sadly it says almost nothing - I think this is v0.0 and can't find a way to change that. The more recent documentation source code is at https://github.com/videolang/video/tree/master/video/scribbl... and there are examples at https://github.com/videolang/video/tree/master/video/example... (without any explanation, and they don't seem to do much).

Unsearchable name, Scheme-like syntax, no accessible documentation, no compelling examples ... not much chance of success. Still, the idea of a "language for making movies" is interesting.

Additionally: no sample video (that's what this project is about, right?). And using terms only an ingroup can understand ("what's DrRacket again?")
