Glad people are excited about this,
I like "beginner/intermediate/advanced". I think it's more accurate than
"easy/hard" and clearer than "accessible", "welcoming", etc.
I also want to call out the "mentor" label that the Rust team is using:
experienced devs nominate themselves as mentors on projects, then newcomers
can tackle them with some support. As a newcomer, that's *extremely*
appealing to me.
Cheers,
Ike

The quality that we are looking for is “tacklabe by a newcomer“, i.e. not requiring too deep knowledge of GHC. Is there a nice word for that? I found “accessible”, “welcoming”, “appealing” – anything that sounds good in native English speaker’s ears? :-)
Various projects I'm involved with use
difficulty: beginner (or just "beginner") babydev-bait (!) newcomer (several use "newbie" but I do not recommend that label)
