    Twitter-scale Mastodon implementation in 100x less code than Twitter wrote to build the equivalent

  • We've released many examples.

    The first is our Twitter-scale Mastodon implementation, which is 100x less code than Twitter wrote to build the equivalent at scale (just the consumer product). It's also more than 40% less code than Mastodon's official implementation (which isn't scalable). https://github.com/redplanetlabs/twitter-scale-mastodon

    The rama-demo-gallery repo also contains many short, self-contained, thoroughly commented examples of applying Rama towards very different use cases. These include user profile management, time-series analytics, atomic and fault-tolerant bank transfers, and more. https://github.com/redplanetlabs/rama-demo-gallery
