The Wiki consists of a few components.

• Tokens
• Syntax
• Datatypes
• Control Flow
• Unique Features

The first is the Tokens section, which explains how tokens are formed from the code (this is essentially a breakdown of how the lexer functions so you can better understand how to use the lexer's behaviour to your advantage, either when making programs more readable, or making them shorter :P)

The second is the Syntax section, which explains how expressions/statements and operators work (this is essentially a very simplified explanation of the parser, without all of the syntax rules, so you can better understand how expressions are formed from the tokens to make programs more readable or shorter :P)

The third is the Datatypes section, which explains what types are built in to Proton, as well as a quick breakdown of their uses and where you might want to employ them to make computation faster.

The fourth is the Control Flow section, which shows all of the syntactical constructs and control constructs like if... else, try... except, etc.

The fifth is the Unique Features section, which shows some of Proton's unique features that might convince to use it over other languages :P
