Literally the opposite of friendly. Already in the hello world you have two imports for extremely basic functionality (why should I have to import the ability to throw exceptions??) and a completely enigmatic symbol ' that apparently has a significant function.

A "friendly" programming language should be readable without knowing esoteric symbols.

Really got my hopes up with that headline that it'd be a python-level intuitive-to-read language with static typing.

What you expected sounds more like what nim offers.
