 # sapling
 
-## Introduction
-
 sapling is a "micro-language" that I'm working on to investigate [Tree Calculus](https://github.com/barry-jay-personal/typed_tree_calculus/blob/main/typed_program_analysis.pdf) .
 
 It offers a minimal amount of syntax sugar:
 
 - `t` operator behaving by the rules of Tree Calculus
-- Function ("variable") definitions
+- Variable definitions
 - Lambda abstractions
-- List, Number, and String literals (WIP)
+- List, Integer, and String literals
 
 This is an active experimentation project by [someone who has no idea what they're doing](https://eversole.co).
 
-## What does it look like?
-
-```
-false      = t
-_          = t
-true       = t t
-id         = (\a : a)
-triage     = (\a b c : t (t a b) c) 
-match_bool = (\ot of : triage of (\_ : ot) t)
-and        = match_bool id (\_ : false)
-if         = (\cond then else : t (t else (t t then)) t cond)
-triage     = (\a b c : t (t a b) c)
-test       = triage "leaf" (\_ : "stem") (\_ _ : "fork")
-
--- The REPL outputs the tree form results by default; they are elided here.
-sapling < test t
-DECODE -: "leaf"
-sapling < test (t t)
-DECODE -: "stem"
-sapling < test (t t t)
-DECODE -: "fork"
-sapling < map (\i : listConcat i " is super cool!") [("He") ("She") ("Everybody")]
-DECODE -: ["He is super cool!", "She is super cool!", "Everybody is super cool!"]
-```
-
-## How to use
-
-For now, you can easily build and run this project using Nix:
-
-1. Clone the repository:
-    a. `git clone ssh://git.eversole.co/sapling.git`
-    b. `git clone https://git.eversole/sapling.git`
-1. Run the REPL: `nix run`
