Let us know what you think of it (especially beginners)!

Excellent! I’ll talk this up.

One quick note, while I notice it: in the FP chapters, it refers to Functional Programming, Simplified a couple of times. It would probably be wise to make those into links if possible; otherwise, they’re kind of unhelpful…

Thanks for your feedback, do you mind opening an issue directly on https://github.com/scala/docs.scala-lang/issues/new?

Done – #1550.
