It took me awhile, but their home page has a good code example and a link to some github projects. I grabbed one of their code examples and fed it into the web viewer, then followed along as I read about the format on the home page.
From there I think you could experiment with different widths, heights and depths and eventually come away able to build a slat-based piece of furniture with a text editor.
I don't think I could write something from the ground up in this language without a lot of work, but on the other hand I've seen people using CAD programs and the goofiness that happens when, for instance, they have a few hidden points they didn't know about. This format avoids all that pretty nicely.
