Going to try my hand at ASCIL.
I found the examples, but is there a "Hello World" type of program showing off some of the features?
Any suggestions on where to start and the best way to learn?
Thanks

I did indeed. It is just that I find the documentation here somewhat suspect as about 15% of the issues I have asked about turned out to be based on documentation which was inaccurate. In addition, I find the documentation here to be comprehensive, but disjointed, and laid out in a less than user friendly manner.

Follow through the step-by-step instructions here:

Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL): Step-By-Step Instructions to Create an Advanced Custom Study Function

It provides a basic example.

It is just that I find the documentation here somewhat suspect as about 15% of the issues I have asked about turned out to be based on documentation which was inaccurate.
If you find something which is inaccurate, which in general should not be the case, then tell us specifically what so we can improve upon it.

Those specific step-by-step instructions are accurate and clear to follow.

There are Two Major Areas , Custom study and Trading system. Which of these two do you want. as Most trading programs consists of two areas(example, Indicators and Expert Advisor).
