 Elevator pitch
 --------------
-A language that looks like Python, handles like Haskell, and compiles to
+A programming language, that looks like Python, handles like Haskell,
-WebAssembly.
+and compiles directly to WebAssembly.
 
-Naming
+Name origin
-------
+-----------
 - p from python
 - ha from Haskell
 - asm from WebAssembly
 
-You will need wat2wasm from github.com/WebAssembly/wabt in your path.
+Example
+-------
+For more examples, see the examples directory.
+```py
+def helper(n: u64, a: u64, b: u64) -> u64:
+    if n < 1:
+        return a + b
 
-Ideas

+        return 0
+
+    if n == 1:
+        return 1
+
+    return helper(n - 1, 0, 1)
+```
+
+Gotcha's
+--------
+- When importing and exporting unsigned values to WebAssembly, they will become
+  signed, as WebAssembly has no native unsigned type. You may need to cast
+  or reinterpret them.
+
+Contributing
+------------
+At this time, I'm mostly looking for use cases for WebAssembly, other than to
+compile existing C code and running them in the browser. The goal of WebAssembly
+is to enable high-performance applications on web pages[5]. Though most people
+seem to use it to have existing code run in the browser.
+
+If you have a situation where WebAssembly would be useful for it's speed, I'm
+interested to see what you want to use it for.
+
+Also, if you are trying out Phasm, and you're running into a limitation, I'm
+interested in a minimal test case that shows what you want to achieve and how
+Phasm currently fails you.
+
+Additional required tools
+-------------------------
+At the moment, the compiler outputs WebAssembly text format. To actually
+get a binary, you will need the wat2wasm tool[6].
+ .
