> 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..

https://redplanetlabs.com/docs/~/operating-rama.html#_access...

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.

Well there is whole bank transfer implementation there and thoroughly commented too. Some entrepreneur can take this and run with it to create next generation banking platform.

Maybe they could call their new Clojure-based bank Nubank.
