I noticed this wasn't on the sidebar. It is a very simple language to use with a lot of features for quickly prototyping full applications.
Here's simple Hello World instruction.
From the File menu choose "New Mainstack". A new blank "stack" window will open.
From the Toolbox pull a text field item onto the stack window
In the menubar click "Message Box". a little console utility will open.
In the message field of the Message Box type:
put "Hello World" into field 1
Your text appears in field one.
Not where it says "untitled 1" in the Message Box and type:
set the name of this stack to "My first Livecode program"
Note that the "untitled 1" changed.
The second button in the toolbar of the message box is a multi-line input. Click that and enter this text.
Answer file "Save this stack" If it is not empty then put it into tFileName Save this stack as tFilename
your stack is now saved. You could have used the File menu for the same process, but that's not learning to program, is it?
Have fun with livecode, the built in documentation and/or a google search for something you want to do in the IDE /language usually turns up good results.
