Is there anywhere to actually get a real demo of this product? Something that isn't a WebGL tech demo, but an actual example of an actual app written using this?

I think the closest thing to that would be their "Tweetus" demo. http://demo.famo.us/tweetus/

Glad to see this out. I've been waiting on famo.us to become available for quite a while now. Exciting stuff.

Now, where is the documentation? The readme from the repo points to a docs folder that does not exist, and links to the online versions of documentation lead me to login-only pages... registering only puts me in line for access.

Wow, that Tweetus demo is SO clunky, like a bad Flash site :/

Has anybody already checked out the source code? Could you explain something about how it works?

It is about time. I've been looking forward to trying out Famo.us' Javascript engine to see what all of the hype was about and how they were achieving those remarkable benchmark scores on mobile. I am going to dig into the code tonight and find out what makes it really tick. Fantastic and exciting.
