A note about the scope of this guide

The primary audience for this guide is anyone who'd like to build the project for the purposes of testing it locally, making a code contribution to the project, or generally just satisfying their curiosity about how our implementation works.

Please note that this development guide does not cover the syntax, semantics, or design of the Primer programming language; nor does it describe the Haskell types, functions, etc., that comprise our particular implementation of the language. The former will eventually be published to a separate website, and the latter are available in the various packages' Haddocks.
