Actually, Patchwork has surprisingly few features! Think of it more like an OS than a product. The goal is a small set of composable primitives that let you build many things - documents, tools, branching/diffs, plugins…

To answer your question: although we use Patchwork every day, it’s currently very rough around the edges. The SDK for building stuff needs refinement (and SDKs are hard to change later…) Reliability and performance need improvement, in coordination with work on Automerge. We also plan to have more alpha users outside our lab before a broader release, to work through some of these issues.

In short, we feel that it’s promising and headed in a good direction, but it’s not there yet.
