I just took a look at the FAQ:

I think you have to consider your use case. If you want to build pure online collaboration tool it is fine. But if you want to build something that supports offline collaboration it seems not to be ready yet:

> Clients do have to be connected to the Fluid service. Fluid can tolerate brief network outages and continue operating but eventually the promise of being able to merge local changes weakens. We are investigating ways to improve this using other merging techniques designed to reason over large deltas but no final solution is in place today.

However, what I do like about their approach that they support multiple modern front-end frameworks from React to Vue to Web Components.
