Will keep an eye on this project, love me some Ocaml! Do you have an example deployment of it?
Don’t like the “fresh off the AI block” feeling of the website but could be a bit more confident if I could see it used in the actual wild!

Cool to see some Lisp in this OCaml project:
Add to your bin/dune:
```
    (executable
      (name main)
      (libraries spindle eio_main)
      (preprocess (pps ppx_wiretype)))**
```

  These are S-expressions, not Lisp. It's part of dune, which is the build system for ~40% of OPAM packages.

    Dune is an unholy combination of bash and Lisp, according to its author - https://adam-mcdaniel.github.io/dune-website/
