This project looks awesome; MIT with a near complete feature set included both on the server and the client. Like Laravel for JavaScript. The video was terrible though (IMO) TBH, too aggressive.
Just from a superficial glance and assuming there is nothing fishy in the code, I'm wondering why this hasn't received more traction. A case of NIH? Granted, one could argue Laravel got where they are much thanks to the unique publicity talent of the people involved.
OK - for future reference I believe I found out why this doesn't have more traction. It seems that in order to fully utilize their platform you need to go through a fairly lengthy and detailed registration with considerable legalese. Nowhere could I find sufficient reassurance that the required personal data (name, email, gender, country, phone number and more) will not leak (be sold or traded) to a third party. Not something that feels particularly welcoming.
Very nice, as the maker of a platform called "Visual Javascript" at first I thought someone had posted my project (https://github.com/yazz/visualjavascript), but I stand humbled. TotalJS looks far more awesome. And I loved the video! Great stuff!

I'm on the Getting Started page. How do I actually get started?
https://docs.totaljs.com/welcome/40d63002wc50c/
I've watched the Vimeo video, but that's an ad, not a tutorial.
What do I install to get that node diagram? How do I make Hello World?
Not connected with the project - but came across this https://builder.totaljs.com/
spent 5 min on there, couldn't figure out (and still can't) what it's about...
