I would be very interested to hear how you are using Syndicate and what
your experience has been like, if you wouldn't mind sharing. Do you have
any projects on github that are using it?

untyped code in general, no contracts are generated to ensure safety.
- There is no documentation (though I actually started working on some

I'm generally happy to answer any question you may have about typed or
untyped Syndicate, no matter how small, and look into any issue that needs
to be addressed. Feel free to email me directly or open issues on github.
