I'm having trouble understanding what this is. Is it supposed to be a competitor to Django/Rails/etc.? or a competitor to ansible? a competitor to docker? Something else? If I have a Django/Django REST Framework app, can I deploy it with Darklang? How is it better than "git push heroku master" for small apps?

It seems like an elm-lang for the backend -- by that, I am strictly referring to its all inclusive nature. You must use their language, build tools, infrastructure, et cetera. It even seems like you must use their in-browser IDE; though it has advantages they demonstrate in the first video in the post, you're sacrificing a _lot_. Unlike elm-lang, it's not open-source. So to answer your question, no, you can't deploy a Django app with their platform. EDIT: It seems like you're even giving up git for their own particular brand of version control that is tailored for their use-case, e.g. seems to include in its scope database migrations.
