Why are the 'examples' on a programming language website text explanations, rather than code examples? This project could benefit from following the writers' rule of thumb: "show, don't tell". On the first page they have only two lines of pretty trivial code which makes it hard to tell if I want to spend more time looking into this project. To make matters worse, the first place I'm exposed to actual code is on the second page of their documentation. Until then, it's all wall-o-text style pages.
