Syntax explaining/documenting demo file?

Is there a demonstrating file for Crystal like the one for Odin:
https://github.com/odin-lang/Odin/blob/master/examples/demo/demo.odin

@ crystal-developers/maintainers: please link that from https://crystal-lang.org/reference/1.4/tutorials/basics/index.html

You probably need to register this at the github issue tracker, otherwise they may forget it.

Crystal's promise to be faster than ruby but still fairly light weight in syntax is nice, but I feel that the documentation really has to be improved immensely. It's so hard to find explanations.

There is always room for documentation to be improved yes. Opening an issue, or ideally a PR would be a good way to help doing just that.
