### Getting started
This introduction assumes you know Javacript. If you don't, there are many great resources to learn. [Speaking Javascript](http://speakingjs.com/es5/index.html) is a good e-book for absolute beginners. If you're already familiar with other programming languages, the [Eloquent Javascript](http://eloquentjavascript.net/) e-book might be more suitable for you. [Codecademy](https://www.codecademy.com/learn/javascript) is another good resource that emphasizes learning via interactivity.
The easiest way to try out Mithril is to include it from a CDN, and follow this tutorial. It'll cover the majority of the API surface but it'll only take 10 minutes.
Let's create an HTML file to follow along:

Note: If you prefer `<html>` syntax, [it's possible via Babel](https://babeljs.io/repl/#?code=%2F**%20%40jsx%20m%20*%2F%0A%3Ch1%3EMy%20first%20app%3C%2Fh1%3E).
Note: If you prefer `<html>` syntax, [it's possible to use it via a Babel plugin](https://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/transform-react-jsx/).
