$	Print top of stack (without removing it)
>>var	Store top of stack value in variable var
+	Peek top 2 values, add them, push result
−	Peek top 2 values, subtract (2nd - top), push result
×	Peek top 2 values, multiply, push result
÷	Peek top 2 values, divide (2nd / top), push result
=[logic]	Peek top 2 values, if 2nd equals top, execute logic block
![logic]	Peek top 2 values, if 2nd not equals top, execute logic block
<[logic]	Peek top 2 values, if 2nd less than top, execute logic block
>[logic]	Peek top 2 values, if 2nd greater than top, execute logic block
@functionName[logic]	Start function definition named functionName
functionName:	Call function named functionName
\[stack name]	Change to or create stack (default stack is "main")

Note that for &["string"], if the string in question has a quote " inside of it, you do not need to specify that it is literal

Example programs

Hello, world!

&[Hello, world!]$

Truth-machine

^"i need number"~a&[a]&[0]@loop[$loop:]=[$]![%loop:]

Basic adder

^"a="~a^"b="~b&[a]&[b]+$

Prints "hi" how many times you want

^"how many times would you like to print "hi"?"~f&[0]&[f]@hi[![&["hi"]$%&[1]->>f%%%&[f]hi:]]hi:

Simple fork bomb

@f[f:f:]f:

Cat

@cat[^""~a&[a]$cat:]cat:

4 Op Calculator

^"a="~a^"b="~b^"+, -, *, or /?"~f&[f]&["+"]=[&[a]&[b]+$]&[f]&["-"]=[&[a]&[b]-$]&[f]&["*"]=[&[a]&[b]*$]&[f]&["/"]=[&[a]&[b]/$]&[f]&["+"]![&[f]&["-"]![&[f]&["*"]![&[f]&["/"]![&["invalid args"]$]]]]
