Pro Tip: if I have to dig through eight paragraphs of fluff to find out what the fuck your product is, then you REALLY need to rethink the description of your product.

In particular, it was not at all clear what was meant by a "programming platform". Until I finally stumbled onto the description below, I thought it was just another web-based IDE.

> What is the Unison platform? At a high level, it consists of three components:

> * The Unison language: a powerful, typed, purely functional underlying programming language

> * The Unison editor: a rich, in-browser semantic editor for editing programs

> * The Unison node: the backend implementation of the Unison language, its typechecker, and the API used by the Unison editor and other remote nodes in the network

> The collection of Unison nodes (the Unison web) form a network platform in which data and functions may be trivially exchanged, with a minimum of friction.
