The oldest project I know of that tried to do something similar was Naked Objects, which later became Apache Isis (the Java version at least).

What's the difference between Alan Platform and Apache Isis?

We definitely have had experience with Naked Objects before this. I can tell you the main difference between Alan and Naked Objects is the modeling language under the hood. Which in Alan's case is a specific for its use, whereas in Naked Objects, it is something like Java or C#.
