It's not hype. They just want to control the on-boarding of the open source community. The apps at the launch event tonight show a lot of promise for Famo.us being a better framework over Angular for mobile apps.

As I understand it Famo.us and Angular run at a completely different level of abstraction, doing different things, and targeting different problems?

  For the most part yes, but there is someone from the community working on a pretty novel Famous-Angular integration that should be available in a month or so.

    Do you know his name and/or github ? I'd be interested in the dev of this integration

      Hi Aldri - My company Thomas Street is building the project. You can reach us at hello@thomasstreet.com (and it's zackbrown and graunked on github)

Just like their super-exclusive events in SF that you had to compete for tickets online in order to see the SDK early. Or their beta signup form that I tried years ago, which never delivered an actual beta. Never mind that, I'll just put my name at the end of this new 74k+ long waitlist. I'm sure this whole thing is just a really long on-boarding process.

  Pretty much my experience too. Years ago when we we're still betting on HTML5 and not Native. Years ago when users weren't statistically spending more time in apps than browser for mobile.

famo.us is over marketed, all I see is marketing and trying to create buzz. Instead of all these stupid schemes, let devs decide wether that framework is good or not. I'm not going to invest my time in such a framework if i cant even access the docs on day one. What's next? invites for updates ?
