Seeking Language Project to Join
Admittedly, knowledge is a little scattered, we juggle it between the specs/ideas repo and our Discord server (our main way of communicating currently). There are a few examples in the Ideas/Specs repo. A contributor has also proposed starting to work on an interactive tutorial, since we can run the compiler and editor in web, we might do that to collect all stable capabilities of the language soon.
