I've been using minisign, signify, and ed25519 on a project and they're minimal but wonderful. They're fast, they have small key and signature sizes, and I found it way easier to integrate the reference ed25519 implementation into my project than say libgpgme or OpenSSL.
Ted Unangst of OpenBSD gave a nice talk on the design of signify: http://www.openbsd.org/papers/bsdcan-signify.html http://www.openbsd.org/papers/bsdcan-signify.html
The OpenBSD use case is quite limited and doesn't require PKI, so you won't find web of trust, keyservers, or anything like that. It would be awesome to have minimal solutions to those problems as well though. Anyone aware of attempts?
