> Directed acyclic graphs are muched discussed in comp-sci, but octopus appears to be the first reusable, turnkey, ready-to-wear, off-the-shelf implementation of a DAG for application development, in any language, that I'm aware of.

I wrote one for Rust called moongraph: https://crates.io/crates/moongraph https://github.com/schell/moongraph

It powers my configurable renderer and my ECS. I'm sure lots of other folks have written their own and they might not even know it's a DAG.
