Hello, as a suggestion, in the web site (I suppose under "about us") you could give a quick example of what problem this language is trying to solve. I am a bit in the IT and on my first visit on this site I still didn't get what "number to number name conversion" problem is about... I am sure a one-two sentences example, or link to a good wikipedia entry, would help...

Cheers!

[EDIT] I did read the "background" section, but still didn't grasp what the problem is..

Dear Sylvaticus,

I've modified titles of https://numbertext.github.io/#about to

“1, 2, 3 → One, Two, Three Write Out Numbers Using Words”

Thanks for your helpful suggestion, Best regards, László
