Documentation
This docs area gives you a focused way to explore installation, syntax, packages, examples, and the language workflow.

Walk through real snippets adapted from the Kira repository.
Learn the lockfile, Foundation, registry, path, and pinned git workflow.
Platform-specific instructions for macOS, Linux, and Windows.
Start on the install page, pick your operating system, and run the matching command exactly once. After installation, verify that `kira --version` works from a fresh terminal.
Once the toolchain is working, look at the syntax guide. It covers the core pieces most people want first: values, functions, mutation, and simple data types.
Once the basics feel familiar, read the packages guide. It covers the bundled Foundation package, exact registry versions, pinned git dependencies, and lockfile-backed builds.
The docs are intentionally short and navigable. Instead of one giant wall of text, each page focuses on one question: how to install, how the syntax reads, or what real code looks like.
Kira's pitch here is clarity. These docs mirror that by keeping the explanations close to the code and only introducing terminology when it helps you understand what is happening.
