Probably should have some sort of intro here

Recommended reading order

1. [Philosophy](docId\:x4BNd9VAXNludm4t3u1_1)&#x20;
2. [Core Concepts](docId\:IumsbkD0Xk-VxDPgVjxm0)&#x20;
3. [Deprecated](docId\:fYD23NH0BfzDhnwoCNBaz)&#x20;

From there feel from to poke around Types, Constructs, and Aspects for more about the language.&#x20;

The typing system is one of the major features of Shift so after reviewing the core concepts its worth a deep dive on the specific pages.

[Decisions](docId\:OjKdtGgWs_dwMdfQdq6wG) contains information about undecided functionality
