Just stumbled upon this amazing little piece...
Between the engine and the game data, there is still development happening. Not as active as some othe projects out there, but it's mostly been a matter of "when I have the time".

Do people still use ranvier MUD
Looking at the commit frequency on their GitHub, it looks like it hasn't been updated in a while. I'm not sure if anyone's working on it behind the scenes and just hasn't pushed to the main repository, but it's not a good sign that the last public push was 2 years ago.

Newbie seeking wisdom.
Then that depends on the MUD engine you're planning to use. Evennia is in python, which may help since you're familiar with it, although it is a pretty large and complicated beast. Ranvier is a pretty simple and streamlined MUD engine that is written in Javascript and likely a great place to start if you're not an old MUD player who wants to recreate their old SMAUG or Circle favorite mud. It can be installed via node.js even. Both Ranvier and Evennia (I think) allow you to build the rooms interactively within a running mud (not 100% sure on that)

Modern MU* Platforms: Web-integration, mobile/desktop apps, etc.
Indeed! Another one I forgot to mention is Ranvier in javascript and node.js which I think also allows websockets to communicate in ways other than telnet.
