Just to let you know a few people are still waiting for the demo. The project looks cool but we would like to see it work without having to download and install stuff. It may sound petty but there are many projects out there and practically speaking installing all interesting ones would take ages, so we need to be picky and choose carefully. I bookmarked your page and am visiting it regularly, but the demo is still not there. Thank you very much for your work and I hope a demo appears soon!

I am sorry that you are still waiting. Currently i am very busy fixing bugs and helping people who started Lona projects in the last days. I only work on Lona at night because this is a side project.

The hosting infrastructure behind lona-web.org is very lightweight and Lona makes heavy use of multithreading. I plan on providing "demos" in Form of an code example next to a gif or video of me using it.

I released Lona 1.2 which has a much smaller package size and now can run from a single python script. So there is no need anymore to install much stuff to try it out til then.
