Documentation: clear, simple, accurate.
A concept is tolerated inside the microkernel only if moving it
outside the kernel, i.e. permitting competing implementations, would
prevent the implementation of the system’s required functionality.

As someone who is struggling to learn Snap (and I am trying to use it
in one project), I would appreciate some nice explanations of the
basic concepts, minimal and isolated from each other. For example,
just a static template, just having a few constant splices of
different types and showing them in a template.
In general, examples are most useful when they explain some abstract
rule. What are the rules these examples explain? Just phrase it in one
sentence for people to remember. Like, "Templates can be composed of
other templates using the apply tag", then show the example of how to
do it. Also, adding "negative" examples, which show common errors, is
a good approach.
