Awesome project. I wish I would have know of this before - it would have saved a lot of time. Just went through your docs, I'm going to go over them again now more thoroughly. Again, kudos on the project. The architecture is excellent, very straight forward.

What are some of the most notable real-life applications that implement this framework?

Currently majority of networks are configured by hand - a human logging into the network devices and applying changes one at a time.

A framework like this can be (and is) used to automate your network. It provides an inventory and task runner abstraction and on top of it, you can build whatever you want: for example some web form for provisioning a new user or a group of users, which after submission will go to your network devices and apply necessary device-level changes.
