My only exposure to it is trying it as a pre-configured options in antiX 15.
It is light and definitely workable.

In fact I would suggest everyone give antiX a try to explore the various
functional possibilities presented.
It is definitely applicable as a reference as it is a Debian Jessie
based distro and is without (spit) systemd.
It is all about choice and looking at the choices and approaches taken
can help.
