I wrote a whitepaper on Hop, but it was too hard to understand and too focused on details.
To fix this I made a series of slides that focus more on explanation and the big picture.
The slides illustrate Hop's motivation, compare Hop with real world analogues, and explain Hop's design choices.

Most of all I would love to get feedback on Hop, so I can improve the design!
