+Hi is a tiny, JS‑inspired language that prefers symbols over keywords. Fewer words → fewer walls between people. And with an AI‑first mindset, we bias toward patterns that are easy to write, read, compress, and transform. The result feels like a playful toolbox that also respects production constraints.

-### Why Hi?
-- Corely symbolic: fewer keywords, more universal glyphs. Symbols travel better across languages and scripts.
-- JS-inspired pragmatism, but not JS. If you know JS, you’ll grok Hi fast.
-- AI-first: short, rigid tokens make parsing/generation simpler for LLMs. Great for code-golf, great for machines.
-
-> Printing uses `_()` — think “say”. Comments are `//`.
-
-```js
-// Hello, world
+## Hello, world
+~~~js
+// Hello World in Hi
 _("Hi world")
+~~~
+
+- `_` is the standard print/write function.
+- Code fences use JS highlighting for now.
+
+## Declarations and assignments
+~~~js
+// Symbols over keywords:
+name: "Orion"     // Declaration
+times = 3         // Assignment
+~~~
+- `:` declares a name.
+- `=` assigns to an existing name.
+
+## Blocks unify data and behavior
+In Hi, `{}` makes a Block. It’s always both an object and a function. That means you can store properties and also call it.
+
+~~~js
+// Function Block
+sayHi: {
+  _("Hi")
+}
+sayHi() // call like a function
+~~~
+
+~~~js
+// Object Block
+player: {
+  name: "Orion"  // public
+  #hp: 100       // private
+}
+_(player.name)   // "Orion"
+~~~
+
+~~~js
+// Hybrid Block (object + private state + behavior)
+counter: {
+  #value: 0
+  inc: {
+    value = value + 1
+    _("The count is now: " + value)
+  }
+}
+
+counter.inc() // "The count is now: 1"
+counter.inc() // "The count is now: 2"
+~~~
+
+- In JS you can’t have a bare object that is callable and also carries private state without factories/closures. Here it’s natural.
+- My feeling: this is surprisingly calming. The “thingness” and the “action” live together, so I don’t have to keep mental tabs on where state hides. It reminds me of little self‑contained organisms.
+
+### A quick philosophy riff
+Blocks make programs read like small poems: name a thing with `:`, give it a heart with `#private` state, give it hands as callable parts, and let it speak with `_`.
+
+## Parameters
+~~~js
+withParams: (str) {
+  _(str)
+}
+
+withParams("Hey!") // "Hey!"
+~~~
+
+## Truthiness (designed for clarity and golfing)
+~~~js
+0   // falsy (the official false)
+!0  // truthy (the official true)
+4   // truthy
+""  // falsy  (truthy if non-empty)
+{}  // falsy  (truthy if non-empty)
+[]  // falsy  (truthy if non-empty)
+-0  // falsy / null / undefined (collapses empties)
+==  // equivalent to JS ===
+~~~
+- Short to type, easy for AI to normalize, and compact for code golfing.
+
+## Conditionals as expressions with Blocks
+~~~js
+// if
+(cond) ? { /* then */ }
+
+// if / else
+(cond) ? { /* then */ } : { /* else */ }
+~~~
+
+Like Rust, the last expression in a Block is returned.
+
+~~~js
+tern: (cond) ? {"A"} : {"B"}
+
+// A lovely multi-branch:
+score: 85
+grade: (score > 90) ? {"A"}
+     : (score > 80) ? {"B"}
+     : {"C"}
+
+_(grade) // "B"
+~~~
+
+> Unification vibe: conditions choose Blocks, not statements. Data and behavior stay composable. This makes composition and refactoring feel like sliding tiles instead of rewriting grammar.
+
+## Arrays
+~~~js
+primes: [2, 3, 5, 7]
+
+// Access
+firstPrime: primes[0]
+
+// Mutation
+primes[0] = 1
+_(primes) // [1, 3, 5, 7]
+~~~
+
+## Loops
+~~~js
+// for
+(i: 0; i < 5; i = i + 1) * {
+  _(i)
+}
+
+// while
+(!0) * {
+  // ...do stuff forever (truthy)...
+  ^ // break
+}
+
+// flow control
+>> // continue
+^  // break
+~~~
+
+### Bridging examples
+Sometimes the smallest examples teach the most.
+
+~~~js
+// 1) Tiny math util
+add: (a, b) { a + b }
+_(add(2, 5)) // 7
+
+// 2) A Block that is both config and runnable
+job: {
+  name: "daily-report"
+  #runs: 0
+  run: {
+    runs = runs + 1
+    _("running " + name + " #" + runs)
+  }
+}
+
+job.run() // "running daily-report #1"
+
+// 3) Method-style call reads well
+user: {
+  name: "Kai"
+  hello: { _("Hi " + name) }
+}
+user.hello() // "Hi Kai"
+
+// 4) Short-circuit with truthy/falsy style
+safeName: user.name ? { user.name } : { "Anonymous" }
+~~~
+
+> Feeling note: the private `#` makes me smile. Privacy as a first thought, not an afterthought, nudges me to design better modules.
+
+<hr class="soft">
+
+## Why symbols? Why now?
+- World‑friendly: Symbols sidestep English heavy keywords.
+- AI‑friendly: Tokens are short, consistent, easy to learn and predict. Models thrive on regular patterns.
+- Golf‑friendly: Less keystrokes, fewer ceremony characters, more signal.
+
+I feel a little thrill when a language removes accidental complexity. The code shrinks and my intent gets louder.
+
+## Design snapshot
+- `:` declare • `=` assign
+- `{}` Block = object ∧ function
+- `#name` private field in its Block
+- `()` call or params
+- `? :` expressions that yield values (Blocks)
+- `*` loop operator
+- `>>` continue • `^` break
+- `0` false • `!0` true • `-0` empty/nullish collapse
+- `==` is JS `===`
+
+## A tiny mental model
+~~~js
+// A program is a map of names → Blocks.
+// A Block is:
+//  - a bag of properties (public + #private)
+//  - a callable body (optional)
+//  - a scope for its internals
+//  - an expression that returns its last value
+~~~
+
+### A miniature sketch that ties it all
+~~~js
+main: {
+  title: "Hi"
+  #visits: 0
+
+  greet: (who) { _("Hi, " + who) }
+
+  tick: {
+    visits = visits + 1
+    _("visits=" + visits)
+  }
+
+  run: {
+    greet("world")
+    tick()
+    (visits > 1) ? {"returning"} : {"first-time"}
+  }
+}
+
+_(main.run()) // "returning" after second call
+~~~
+
+> Personal aside: the above reads like a little organism with memory and reflexes. I can almost feel the shape of the program in my hands.
