 Welcome to Aria. Aria is a modern, dynamic scripting language. It is meant to be a "sweet spot" language, easy to pick-up and with a good balance between ease of use, safety, and flexibility. Aria's design choices help you build great programs quickly.

 Aria has modern, safer error handling: Aria replaces unreliable `None` pointer checks with a modern, multi-tiered approach to error handling. By emphasizing algebraic data types (e.g. `Maybe`), Aria makes errors explicit, safer, and easier to manage, with fewer runtime surprises.
 
 `null`, the [billion dollar mistake](https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com/questions/413149/if-null-is-a-billion-dollar-mistake-what-is-the-solution-to-represent-a-non-ini) just does not exist in Aria, making code safer, easier to maintain and error handling more robust.
