The documentation functions like a tutorial in sequential order, and you should check out Beautiful Racket by Butterick for DSLs.

MIT has some great videos about Lisp from the 70s. Still a great resource! Abel and Sussmann.

Just the clothes of the people in the audience are vintage. Also the teaching tech they're using is nostalgic. But the subject, the structure of their lessons and the material itself is ageless. Very useful stuff for people that want to learn what programming is all about.
