Any relation to https://www.rooms.me/ or are you just lifting their design without credit? You forget to take out links to their site. (bottom right) Pretty dumb move, considering rooms.me is by FB, and there's bound to a be FB people looking on HN.

They still didn't take them out. The links are just commented out in the code now.

In fairness, "nobody gives a shit how the sausage is made."

If this product adds value to people's lives, why does it matter if they lifted the website design?

Intellectual property...? Also this is generally the kind of community that cares.

Because it's illegal.

Copying licensed code, like this: (left rooms.me, right nuggetsapp) https://www.diffchecker.com/gmudwop7

is I L L E G A L, and I M M O R A L. Letting it slide is not okay!

Earlier quoted context omitted.

This sparked a debate in our office - clearly designers look to other sites for inspiration, but at what point does it actually become illegal? If the user didn't copy / paste and instead reverse-engineered the code, would it be legal? (but still immoral, of course).

If it adds value to people's lives, that probably makes violations of copyright that make it more likely to be sued out of existence matter more, rather than less, than if it did not.
