#3there are many of this apps already, and while there are a couple that are nice my question is: has anyone actually ever used any of this for something serious?

Yes but this one is slightly different being open source - it means (rather than everyone re-inventing the wheel) it can be integrated into Drupal, Wordpress, any other CMS... which I for one would be in favour of, as it would level the playing field again.

Looks like its different because its not for building only front ends but actually fully functional websites on Node.us. and its open source.

#7The open source part of it is cool, but i still have a couple of issues with it:
+ why do you need 75K as a minimum ? Sounds a bit high, even for 2 people
+ They say its built with node, but what about the frontend of frontend ? Only jquery ?
+ does it support bootstrap or other layouting frameworks?
+ when will they let people contribute to it ?
Id really like something like this being open source, but in that case i feel it would need some more flexibility to be integrated into CMSes and Frameworks. Abstracted reusable components to plug it into existing systems, some kind of Content Repository integration for versioning etc. If thats the plan, ill fund in a heartbeat. If its meant just as a downloadable tool to built basic websites it wouldnt have much appeal to me though.

#8Do the components include back-end Node.is code also? If so I really hope your project becomes popular and is open source. Because I think that developers should code components not UIs or reinventing Crud or email sign up forms. So this is the right direction for developers not just designers or novices. The popular approach with a lot of manual code for basic things like layout and other things is very dumb. Components are the way to go.

It is a CMS in itself. How is 75k high for two people? Are they supposed to commit to living below the poverty line?

They say its "An open source Photoshop replacement for web design" in which case it would be cool to integrate something like this into existing systems. Starting yet another CMS system from scratch doesn't sound like the best idea.
