The plan is to put out an alpha release this month. In the meantime you might check out https://www.eatthismuch.com/.

I'm not that experienced with databases; so exposing the design might be unwise from a security perspective. I'm warm to the idea of open sourcing in the future though. I've only shared repo access with a few trusted engineers. If you think you might want to contribute, hmu ryan at terra dot farm.

Unfortunately I am way too busy lately and I feel I would only leech and not contribute, so better keep me out for now.

I have a very keen interest in the area however! What is most interesting for me recently is how exactly is such data represented in computer structures? Since I know that drawing example graphs and giving good examples would swallow huge amounts of time, I asked if the code is open-source so I could reverse-engineer the data model myself and not pester anyone. =)

I fully understand you not wanting to OSS it yet. I'll be extremely interested if you do that one day in the future.
