"Really cool" is not compelling enough for me to decide to build a product against something like this. Here is, at a minimum, I would require to even consider:
- Comparisons against other types of stacks, like laravel livewire or phoenix liveview
- Performance metrics/stats/benchmarks whatever. You need to be faster and more robust than the other things out there, or provide some other benefit
- First Class self-hosted on premise install version without dependency on any cloud provider. Kubernetes helm charts or docker compose stacks or whatever
- I do actually like that you have a time-windowed source available license. That is something that alleviates the concern if you go under
- Jepsen or similar analysis, need to make sure whatever consistency guarantees you are advertising hold up
