I would suggest a document that solely focuses on the Nix language. I've read the excellent nix pills and the recent other tutorial on Nix on medium, but I think that having something direct on the document that goes into the Nix language deeply, the standard library, the nix-repl and build would be a great way to introduce the language to newbies independent of Nix as a package manage (which is what the Nix manual currently does).
