From the perspective of a hobbyist programmer, the compiler seems very "enterprisey": it doesn't look like you can just stick a program in a file and run it or put some functions in a file and load them into a REPL. Instead it seems you have to make an "application" with some specified directory structure and several files indicating where to find things and so on. I guess that's what a serious programmer would do anyway, but it's a little off-putting to people like me.
