That's fair but I need a job so this demo is a perfect way to showcase all of my skills and to add something recent to my portfolio. Maybe if I have like a year of runway and no money stress I can try the pre-sell thing.



Do it for your portfolio; keep it open source. Use a license that's conducive to OSS and possibly a paid version in the future or dual license later.

Just be realistic with your expectations and don't quit your job until you know that there are customers willing to pay.


I haven't worked in over a year and I'm in dire straights. I'll do the OSS version later.
