 The Terrace language is designed to be a minimal meta-language, capable of being both human and machine readable and writable, but doing little of its own accord other than offering a set of basic conventions that other languages built on top of Terrace can use to their own advantage.
 
+**Version 0.2.0** - Now with modern, idiomatic APIs across JavaScript, Python, C, and Rust!
+
 ## Semantics
+
 At its core, Terrace has only three semantic character classes:
 
 1. Leading whitespace - Leading space (configurable) characters indicate the nesting level of a given section of the document.
- - No characters other than whitespace may be exist at the start of a line unless the line is at the root of the nesting hierarchy.
+
+- No characters other than whitespace may be exist at the start of a line unless the line is at the root of the nesting hierarchy.
+
 2. Newlines (\n) - Newlines indicate when to start matching the next line. The \n character is matched. Carriage returns are treated literally and not used for parsing.
 3. Every other character - The first character encountered after a newline and optional sequence of indent spaces is considered the start of a line's contents. Terrace will process the line verbatim until reaching a newline character.

+## Key Features
+
+- **Zero Memory Allocation**: All implementations avoid allocating memory for string operations, using views/slices instead
+- **Streaming Capable**: Process documents of any size without loading everything into memory
+- **Idiomatic APIs**: Each language follows its own conventions (iterators in JS, generators in Python, macros in C)
+- **Type Safe**: Full type safety in TypeScript, type hints in Python
+- **Cross-Platform**: Works on all major operating systems and architectures
+
+## Nesting Rules
+
+**Core Parser Requirement**: Terrace parsers MUST accept arbitrarily deep nesting. Each line may be nested any number of levels deeper than its parent, with no upper limit on nesting depth.
+
+**Parser Implementation**: When parsing indentation, calculate the nesting level by counting the number of indent units (spaces or tabs) at the start of each line. The level determines the hierarchical relationship between lines.

+
+**Navigation API**: The `children()` method should return all descendant nodes that are deeper than the parent, in document order, regardless of their nesting level. This ensures that arbitrarily nested structures are properly traversable.
+
+**Language-Specific Restrictions**: Terrace-based languages may introduce additional restrictions on nesting (e.g., requiring consistent indentation), but the core parser accepts arbitrarily deep nesting to maintain maximum flexibility.
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Installation
+
+**JavaScript/Node.js:**
+
+```bash
+npm install @terrace-lang/js
+```
+
+**Python:**
+
+```bash
+pip install terrace-lang
+```
+
+**C:**
+Include the header files from `packages/c/` in your project.
+
+**Go:**
+
+```bash
+go get terrace.go
+```
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+All three language implementations provide the same core functionality with language-appropriate APIs:
+
+1. **Document Iteration**: Process documents line by line
+2. **Hierarchical Navigation**: Easily access child and sibling nodes
+3. **Content Access**: Get head/tail/content of each line with zero allocations
+4. **Pattern Matching**: Built-in helpers for common parsing patterns
+
+See the language-specific examples above for detailed usage patterns.

-      | Parameter      | Type                  | Description
-      | -------------- | --------------------- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
-      | levelScope     | number = -1           | If specified, `next()` will return `false` when it encounters a line with a level at or below `levelScope`
-      | **@returns**   | Promise<boolean>      | Returns `true` after parsing a line, or `false` if the document has ended or a line at or below `levelScope` has been encountered.
-
-      Advances the current position in the terrace document and populates lineData
-      with the parsed information from that line.
-
-      Returns `true` after parsing the next line, or `false` upon reaching the end of the document.
-      If the `levelScope` parameter is provided, `next()` will return `false` when it encounters a line
-      with a level at or below `levelScope`. This allows you to iterate through subsections of a document.
-
-      If a lower-level line was encountered, the following call to `next()` will repeat this line again.
-      This allows a child loop to look forward, determine that the next line will be outside its purview,
-      and return control to the calling loop transparently without additional logic.
-
-      Intended to be used inside a while loop to parse a section of a Terrace document.

-      | **@returns**   | number                | The indent level of the current line
-
-      Returns the number of indent characters of the current line.
-
-      Given the following document, `level()` would return 0, 1, 2, and 5 respectively for each line.

-    Markdown
-      | Parameter      | Type                  | Description
-      | -------------- | --------------------- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
-      | levelScope     | startOffset = [level()](#document-level) | How many indent characters to skip before outputting the line contents. Defaults to the current indent level
-      | **@returns**   | string                | The line contents starting from `startOffset`
-
-      Get a string with the current line contents. Skips all indent characters by default, but this can be configured with `startOffset`
-
-      Given the following document
-    CodeBlock terrace
-      root
-          sub-line
-    Markdown
-      - Calling `line()` on the second line returns "sub-line", trimming off the leading indent characters.
-      - Calling `line(0)` however, returns "&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;sub-line", with all four leading spaces.
-
-      `startOffset` is primarily used for parsing blocks that have literal indented multi-line text, such as markdown.
-
-    CodeBlock typescript
-      // Type Definition
-      line: (startOffset?: number) => string
-
-      // Usage

-      | -------------- | --------------------- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------
-      | **@returns**   | string                | The `head` portion (first word) of a line
-
-      Get the first "word" of a line, starting from the first non-indent character to the first space or end of the line.
-      Often used for deciding how to parse a block.
-
-      Terrace DSLs do not *need* to use head-tail line structure, but support for them is built into the parser
-
-      Given the following line, [head()](#document-head) returns "title"
-    CodeBlock terrace
-      title An Important Document
-    CodeBlock typescript
-      // Type Definition
-      head: () => string
-
-      // Usage

-      | **@returns**   | string                | The remainder of the line following the [head()](#document-head) portion, with no leading space
-
-      Get all text following the first "word" of a line, starting from the first character after the space at the end of [head()](#document-head)
-
-      Terrace DSLs do not *need* to use head-tail line structure, but support for them is built into the parser
-
-      Given the following line, [tail()](#document-tail) returns "An Important Document"
-    CodeBlock terrace

-      | matchValue     | string                | A string to check against [head()](#document-head) for equality
-      | **@returns**   | boolean               | Whether the current [head()](#document-head) matches the passed value
-
-      Quickly check if the current line head matches a specified value
-
-      Shorthand for `matchValue === head()`
-

+  | **@returns**   | unsigned int          | The length of the `head` portion (first word) of a line
+
+  Get the *length* of the first "word" of a line,
+  starting from the first non-indent character to the first space or end of the line
+  Often used for deciding how to parse a block.
+
+  Because C uses NULL-terminated strings, we cannot easily slice a string to return something out of the middle.
+  Instead, `terrace_head_length()` provides the length of the head portion.
+  In combination with `doc->lineData.offsetHead`, you can copy the head section into a new string,
+  or use any number of `strn*` C stdlib functions to work with the head section without copying it.
+
+  Terrace DSLs do not *need* to use head-tail line structure, but support for them is built into the parser
+
+  Given the following line, `terrace_head_length(doc)` returns `5`

+  | **@returns**   | char*                 | The remainder of the line following the `head` portion, with no leading space.
+
+  Get a char pointer to everything following the first "word" of a line,
+  starting from the first character after the space at the end of `head`.
+
+  Terrace DSLs do not *need* to use head-tail line structure, but support for them is built into the parser

+
+  Given the following line:
+CodeBlock terrace

+  **Note:** The Core API uses C-style conventions to optimize memory management

+  It is unwieldy and does not follow JavaScript best practices.
+
+  For most projects you'll want to use the [Document API](#document-api) instead.
