+\section{Introduction}
+
+This document provides a brief reference to the Bluejay Lisp language and standard library. It documents every currently valid function, macro, reader macro, and special form supported by the compiler.
+
+\subsection{Typography}
+
+The following text styles and symbols are used within this document to indicate particular values or meanings:
+
+\begin{tabular}[t]{p{0.2\linewidth} p{0.7\linewidth}}
+ \func{cons} & A function ``cons.'' \\
+ \const{\plus{}foo\plus} & A constant ``\plus{}foo\plus.'' \\
+ \var{\earmuff{}bar\earmuff} & A global variable ``\earmuff{}bar\earmuff''. \\
+ \reader{baz} & A reader macro ``baz.'' \\
+ \mac{quux} & A macro ``quux.'' \\
+ \param{parameter} & A function argument ``parameter`` \\
+ \opt{var}{123} & An optional function argument ``var'' with the default value ``123.'' \\
+ \param{args}\more & ``args'' represents the rest of the items in the list. \\
+ \mut{\param{mut}} & A function argument ``mut'' that might be mutated. \\
+ \ret{value} & Indicates that a form will evaluate to ``value''. \\
+ \type{integer} & The type ``integer''. \\
+ \optlist{\text{a}\\\text{b}} & One of ``a'' or ``b.''
+\end{tabular}
+
