 A scripted lisp language with simple syntax, immutable data structures, concurrency built-in, and
 minimal time between starting the runtime and actual execution.
+
+# Documentation
+
+Documentation is broken up into different parts, more or less in the order a newcomer should read them to get familiar
+with the language.
+
+* [syntax/data structures](/doc/syntax.md) - Ginger is a lisp-based language, so if you know the syntax
+                                             for the available data structures you know the syntax for the language
+                                             itself. There's very few data structures, meaning there's minimal syntax.
