Has anyone been using this? What's your experience? What kind of project?

I am wondering if there are components for common scenarios like authentication etc?

From my experience it is still pretty alpha quality. I ran into a weird issue with the inflector library they rolled themselves and had to dig through the code to figure out what was going on. This was about a month ago, so things could have changed, but I wouldn't recommend this for production app just yet. At least one that you have a timeline on.

I've been using hanami for http://www.scripta.io, which is a re-engineering of http://www.noteshare.io . I've been very happy with the transition from rails to hanami, so much so that I now have a second hanami app facing the world: http://www.shoobox.io.

Nice, maybe I should take another look. I really dig the idea. Might of just been bad timing.

Love your projects and discovered http://asciidoctor.org by reading on shoobox -- exactly what I needed!

What came to mind looking at scripta is that you might find it useful to look at https://edwardtufte.github.io/tufte-css/

What do you use for persistency? Sequel?

Thank you very much for your kind words -- and for the link to the Tufte-CSS site. Very good material there, as you would expect from Tufte. You may also enjoy this: http://practicaltypography.com/why-theres-no-e-book-or-pdf.h....

I use postgres for persistency -- mostly throgh Hanami's model component, though I do some parts directly in sequel.

I still cannot believe that auto-inflection continues to be a thing that people use in projects... seems like the sort of thing that will break all the time to bring pretty small amount of benefits.

Should be able to use Rack middleware like Warden.

Yes. Hanami is Rack based, so Warden or RodaAuth works great with it.
