My first thought, upon seeing this is licensed under the GPLv3, is that it wouldn't be legal to run under iOS, as the Tivoization aspect would come into play. However, as there is but one author, this issue doesn't materialize, although the sole author is the only one who can legally submit this to run under any machine, barring that private app exception I'm rather certain someone would mention if I didn't first.

> Tivoization is the creation of a system that incorporates software under the terms of a copyleft software license, but uses hardware restrictions to prevent users from running modified versions of the software on that hardware. [...] Stallman believes this practice denies users some of the freedom that [GPL] was designed to protect.

I don't intend to release this app on any other platform but others who want to may feel free - I think GPL allows for this. In the end, I don't really care what others do with my app as long as they consult me about what they want to do with it, which MIT is too loose for. If others want to release an app based on mine, they can feel free.

Apple doesn't allow GPLv3 code if there are multiple contributors? I thought they didn't allow GPLv3 code at all (and that this app required you to compile and install it as as a developer .. never had an eyeProduct so I'm not even sure what the dev process is like).
Earlier quoted context omitted.
That was one of my intentions. I also started this project to learn more about reactive programming and exploring the technical sides of creating views in Swift.
Swift I'm not familiar with Swift personally, but given what you've laid out; it's language agnostic. You've committed a lot time to it.. A lot of us have ideas of somthing simular, but we get busy... This is the time to cut and run. Are you currently employeyed ? (no need to give who). How much time did you commit to this, kinda cool piece that is expected a lot of time! As I said before, I have 100 questions! Full…
To answer your questions, I will be interning at a company starting January. I worked on this project for less than a month. Since I'm a 1st year in college, I also have my studies but I try to code at least 2 hours a day.
@dang Maybe add Show HN: prefix?

There's also Spotiamp. Not sure if it it still works.
A truly tragic loss IMHO
