"Why does this exist? I made Cello as a fun experiment to see what C looks like hacked to its limits. As well as being a powerful library and toolkit, it should be interesting to those who want to explore what is possible in C."

"Can it be used in Production? It might be better to try Cello out on a hobby project first. Cello does aim to be production ready, but because it is a hack it has its fair share of oddities"

It sounds like they don't intend for it to be anything other than an interesting case study.

I found their FAQ to be refreshingly honest. This is in no way suited for large projects or where multiple people will be contributing. A case study sounds like a good description.

And the authors seem quite okay with that.
