Syntax may be less important than a language's features, but it isn't until the 4th page of the tutorial that I even have an inkling of what code in Pony looks like.
I'm excited to give this a try!

Once I've understand it was a new language (cool name btw), I've look for the Hello-world example to see if the language was easy enough for me. I've found the link after reading the HN comment: http://tutorial.ponylang.org/getting-started/helloworld/
Then, I've quickly read the part on concurrent programming. But I've not understood how it is easier with Pony. It's very frustrating. So far, my understanding is there is class (called actor) that can discuss together by sending each other immutable object. I would like to see some code in the tutorial that show how concurrency is easily done in Pony.
