I'm pretty pleased with the Hare documentation as a whole, through the website and tutorials and haredoc and man pages it's pretty comprehensive

@drewdevault Overall I’d agree. But I’d like a more comprehensive language reference that covers everything in the spec. union{} and opaque, for example are not talked about in the language tutorial at all. And maybe an explanation of memory allocation for programmers coming from GC’d languages.

@mallory the spec/reference thing is a deliberate choice, some odds and ends were left out that aren't useful to most Hare programmers starting out (stuff like valist was left out for this reason, too), and to encourage programmers to read the spec. Maybe will revisit this someday though
Fair point re: memory allocation
