+# [The Kitten Programming Language](#the-kitten-programming-language)
+
+**Kitten** is a statically typed, stack-based functional programming language designed to be simple and fast. It is a *concatenative* language, combining aspects of imperative and pure functional programming. There is [an introduction](/intro/) available and a [tutorial](/tutorial/) in progress.
+
+## [Features](#features)
+
+Concatenative Programming
+:   A compositional style of programming to make refactoring easier and improve code reuse.
+
+Static Types
+:   Type inference based on Hindley–Milner to help improve correctness and performance.
+
+Permissions
+:   A system of effect types to control where side-effects are allowed.
+
+Deterministic Resource Management
+:   Automatic management of memory and resources with no garbage collector.
+
+## [Examples](#examples)
+
+### [Hello world](#hello-world)
+
+```
+"meow" say  // Kittens don't speak English.
+```
+
+### [Hello user](#hello-user)
+
+```
+define greet (List<Char> -> +IO):
+  -> name;
+  ["Hello, ", name, "!"] concat say
+
+"What is your name? " ask
+greet
+```
