For a UI framework, show me a pretty demo with some example snippet code next to it and I will read on. Otherwise, I'm not motivated -- this is not the way you want people to read about your UI framework.
I agree with you, but when you go to the main page of the project [0] it looks cool and I might use it soon. [0] http://famous.org/
It took me quite a bit of scrolling to figure out that Famous is some sort of JS UI system.
Tell me what it is.

Oh.
Link to the framework page [0]. I couldn't find any demos there or in other pages, though. I couldn't figure out how to run the examples [1] and there's no live links of em either. This is not specifically directed at Famous... Why don't you [framework creators] show off REAL freaking apps? Show me a reasonably sized application that handles sophisticated user interactions. How do you handle routing? Data fetching /…
It really bugs me in this day and age, that frameworks are build without async client-server being a first-class behavior at least by example.
While I really appreciate the various demos for say TodoMVC, which allow some framework comparison.... what I would love to see (from TodoMVC or similar) would be an abstracted interface that is expressly async (even if only using setTimeout) via callbacks or promises for the data access. It's part of the story that is very important. Also, a very simple router... perhaps requiring a hello/login/register screen (user:user) and the todo screen.
I know TodoMVC was supposed to be just trivial enough to show something between the various frameworks... that said, I think we really need just a hair more.
Got it after watch the Website:
"The Famous Framework is a new JavaScript framework for creating reusable, composable, and interchangeable UI widgets and applications. It balances declarative with imperative and functional with stateful, and it's built on top of the Famous Engine."

Stackoverflow has lots of famous snippets.

The web needs something like Apple's Cocoa or Cocoa touch - a very rich GUI toolkit. It looks like this takes some inspiration from that, as some of the names are same. I don't know if it has an solver-based auto layout engine, though.
Anyways, I've been wanting something like this for a while now, as no company has really stepped up to the plate with a real GUI toolkit.
It does look like a cool JS framework though.

This framework isn't gonna be ... famous.
