NGINX Unit

So I just found out about NGINX Unit, a dynamic application server. Unit can run multiple programming languages in parallel and should off-load server side code to Unit configuration (e.g. SSL/TLS termination).
I don't know much about it and there is no information or reviews our there.
Wondering if someone had to chance to use it and has a solid opinion to share.

Looks like an environment isolation system via NGinx configuration (confs'). Like a virtual ENV in Python or Golang app root. Looks interesting if you are deep into Nginx usage.

Not really into Nginx...
I have a feeling they are going towards the service mesh kind of infrastructure
