Add some demo applications and/or philosophy to docs/site?

[Bartvds]

I've been following big and resource for a while and I see some amazing aspects but I can't be quite sure I totally get the whole picture. I myself don't have a computer science degree so this doesn't mean as much as it should:

".. a next generation application zero-framework which solves the domain problem of building web applications"

What does this mean in practical terms? Can you show the users how big and resource would improve their application development? What is the 'domain problem' in node.js and how to we use big to solve it? What is the pattern you think is the right way to use big?

Maybe a small philosophy explanation, an annotated demo application or a comparison with the lesser alternatives would make adoption easier.

@Bartvds - Have you seen the example applications? https://github.com/bigcompany/big/tree/master/examples

[Bartvds]

Thanks. I did see them earlier, they are the simple basic practical use example. I was more thinking about a bit more substance and insight in what the specific magic about resource based development is. I'm pretty sure there is a vision behind this.

Have you tried creating a custom resource and using any of the reflection features?
