Please link to https://book.jank-lang.org/ for anything related to the jank alpha. I wasn't quite ready to announce the alpha, but I appreciate that folks are excited. :)

There's just a couple more compiler features I wanted to get merged, but everything should be in order for folks to follow the book and try jank out.

Hi! I'm excited about jank and so I'm excitedly reading through the book you just linked. I noticed some grammatical errors. Will you consider PRs to the `book` section of the code, or would you prefer feedback in some other format in order to better maintain your authorial voice?

Hi! I'm happy to accept grammatical PRs to the book. You could also report issues via Slack or Github issue. I will not be accepting larger PRs to the book, to maintain a consistent voice.

Cool! I'm still reading, but when I'm done I'll open a PR for the few small issues I've seen.

Thanks for your work on jank! I hope the Alpha brings you lots of new users, useful bug reports, and some contributors. :)
