The most important mui lang element is the node element. Nodes can have three elements inside them: Content, Properties and Nodes.

They are optional, but they are positional, the order in which they are represented matter.

Content

Content is just the value of the node it's represented by a string characters enclosed by single quotes. A node can only have one content element.

'Hello World'

Properties

Properties are key value pairs that are used to give a node any property, they are represented by the key, a colon and a value enclosed by single quotes. A node can have multiple properties, separated by comma or new line.

key: 'value'

keyOne: 'valueOne', keyTwo: 'valueTwo'

keyOne: 'valueOne'
keyTwo: 'valueTwo'

Nodes

Nodes are the most important element, they are represented by the node type and parenthesis.

node ()

A node with content, properties and nodes would look like this.
