Start here

If you’re new to Incan, start here.

Beta

Incan is currently in Beta.

What this means for you:

• Things may change quickly (especially ergonomics and tooling).
• Some pages may be incomplete; prefer the canonical entrypoints (Start here, Tooling start here, Language start here).
• If the docs imply a feature exists but you can’t find it, treat it as either:
  • overpromise (docs should label as future), or
  • discoverability gap (docs should link better), or
  • product gap (feature not implemented yet).

Keep an eye on the GitHub Releases for new releases and changes.

Not sure where you fit?

Choose by goal:

• Try it now: Getting Started (make-first install/build/run + hello world)
  • If anything fails: Troubleshooting
• Learn the basics: The Incan Book (Basics)
• Look something up: Language reference (generated) + CLI reference
• Set up tooling: Tooling start here
• Contribute: Contributing start here

Choose a path

• Coming from Python (apps)
• Coming from Rust (evaluator)
• Pipelines & automation
• Beginner

Note: these “Start here” pages are routing + framing only; canonical content lives in Language/Tooling/Contributing.
