I'm not going to lie, it seemed intruiging to me and I started thinking about what project I can build with it. But I saw immediately there are only few available drivers for communication besides standard HTTP API. I always prefer using socket connection because it's faster than making HTTP requests. It was the same case like when I decided to build client for communication with Neo4j (Bolt).
Fortunately they provide well made documentation and that made my job easier. It took few days and driver was working very well. I've learned a bit about ThingsDB while doing that, which gives me more knowledge for building my project around it. My driver is available at github as opensource: thingsdb-php.
