A short Ur/Web overview there would be fantastic! I'm a bit skeptical that such short documents are sufficiently helpful, but it never hurts to have more information out there. I don't see myself finding the time to write one soon, unfortunately; but, again, I expect a tutorial written by someone else would be more useful, anyway.

Hi,

I found  the following which gives a great overview of both languages:

[Haskell]
http://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/haskell/

[Standard ML]
http://learnxinyminutes.com/docs/standard-ml/

Perhaps someone could write something similar for Ur/Web and post on learnxinyminutes.com <http://learnxinyminutes.com>

Thanks for the question, which probably others have thought to ask, too.

Various parts of the documentation say that they assume reading
familiarity with ML and Haskell.  Have you looked into concrete
introductory resources on those languages?  It might indeed make sense
for us to suggest particular tutorials on those languages, on the Ur site.

I also hope someone writes an Ur/Web tutorial that starts from the
common ground assumed of programmers today, but I don't know of any
concrete plans to do that yet.
