If you are familiar with LaTeX (as a user) many things are obvious in
ConTeXt, at least for me.
Early showstoppers – at least for me – are configuration and the
definition of styles etc. At first you think, wow, this key-value
pairing is nice, but then you realize that you never know which keys are
available and what values can be applied.
What kind of brackets must be used?
Why do some commands have two, three, four brackets for options?
The next showstopper is the define-setup system and the possibility to
give names to your macros. I always thought: Well, there is a well
defined system in it, I am only too dumb to grasp it. I discovered
setup-en.pdf and tried to figure out how to read it. I discovered
showsetup only to see that \showsetup{setuphead} just gives me a list of
options but no explanation. It would be great if showsetup would give
explanations to the keys and values.
I like to learn using try-and-error, but I would love to have a
systematic introduction to the concepts of ConTeXt.
Maybe you can add some of this in your introduction to make it a
starting point for users speaking German.

Re: [NTG-context] German introduction to context
Hi Axel,
how about creating a repository at GitLab with the contents you provide?
This would make contributions easier.
Just in case it helps,
Pablo
PS: ConTeXt can deal with XML directly, so I wonder whether it makes
sense to convert from pandoc to ConTeXt.
PS²: hyphenation is wrong in US English only.
\starttext
\hyphenatedword{Trennalgorithmus}
\de\hyphenatedword{Trennalgorithmus}
