> + website itself is difficult to find the hello world example

I opened the website, saw a docs link, that had a "Getting started" section, and started wondering what you were talking about. Then realised all that gives is Gradle build instructions, a maven build command.

It'll tell me how to interact with javascript, use coroutines, all sorts of stuff, without actually giving me a very basic "Hello World" sort of example. I don't think I've ever come across a language / runtime that hasn't at least had a very simple example or two within their own documentation.

https://github.com/konsoletyper/teavm/tree/master/samples/he... seems to be where they have their hello world, but ... what am I even looking at? You're right, this is shockingly bad by way of a newbie experience.
