There are examples of ocsigen websites: http://ocsigen.org/ocsimore/sources/ https://forge.ocamlcore.org/scm/viewvc.php/?root=ocsforge http://ocsigen.org/ocsigenserver/sources/examples You could even found some of them outside ocsigen websites: https://forge.ocamlcore.org/scm/viewvc.php/?root=lambdoc http://github.com/mfp/ocsiblog But, I think the documentation issue is a chicken and egg problem. If more people are interested in ocsigen, the documentation will improve... I am experimenting with ocsigen since one month and I think it is a good framework. It provides a good type checking of HTML struct, errors outputted are not very clear, but you know where the problem is.
