> Rama can build end-to-end backends at any scale on its own in a tiny fraction of the code. At its core is a new programming language implementing a new programming paradigm..

Grand claims, but where are the super powerful demo apps? The getting started docs are a trickle of info..

The "demo gallery" has a few cherry picked examples, but I don't see how this fulfills the claim of a "new paradigm". I wanted to be blown.. but this ain't it.

Oof.

Tbf, the purpose of the blog is to talk about the power of Clojure/Lisp for defining the new paradigm, rather than the paradigm itself. Though the author then goes on to talk about "fragments" as the basis for the new paradigm.

The first sentence has a link to the project page which has most of the info you need.
