If you know nothing about the language, the main page explains to you 
quickly what's the point of the language, and gives you example code, so 
you can immediately see how it looks like. There are relatively large 
and easy to find buttons/links for:

1) download

2) tutorials/docs

3) some (Nim) even have a link for trying the language in the browser

The download page is also easy to navigate, with large buttons/links for 
the main platforms (Windows, Linux, macOS).

I think that was pretty much my criteria. It's not much, but it does 
matter for new users.
