+
+V is a statically typed compiled programming language 
+designed for building maintainable software.
+
+It's similar to Go and its design has also been influenced by 
+Oberon, Rust, Swift, Kotlin, and Python.
+
+The language promotes writing 
+simple and clear code with minimal abstraction.
+
+Despite being simple, V gives the developer a lot of power. 
+Anything you can do in other languages, you can do in V.

+	for i, lname in loop_names {

+		//         1) Peter
+	}
+	// You can also use break and continue followed by a 
+	// label name to refer to an outer for loop:
+	outer: for i := 4; true; i++ {
+		println(i)
+		for {
+			if i < 7 {
+				continue outer
+			} else {
+				break outer
+			}
+		}

+## Further reading
+
+There are more complex concepts to be learnt in V which are available at the
+official [V documentation](https://github.com/vlang/v/blob/master/doc/docs.md).
+
+You can also find more information about the V language at the [official website](https://vlang.io/)
+or check it out at the [v playground](https://v-wasm.vercel.app/).
