Whenever someone links to a new programming language, I would like the page to have a few snippets of code in that language, just so I can get a quick overview.
The linked page on github https://thrax.elijahpotter.dev/ has some snippets that you can click on. The first one called tour.th has a very brief overview of the language.
That tells me way more than snippets ever will.
The why in this case is "a little toy language ... to learn .. how dynamically-typed interpreted languages worked"
> That tells me way more than snippets ever will.
Fortunately, it is easy for a landing page to include both.
