Livecode Future

[Bob Sneidar]

If that is true then I misunderstand the licensing model. My understanding is that every app I distribute for someone else to use is a “seat” as well as me the developer, another seat. I have 3 “seats” at present including myself, all are internal users to the company I work for, but the company does not pay me to do this development. I wrote the application to make generating forms easier for the IT technicians in the field. 

Are you saying I can purchase one developer seat for $499, build 2 standalone apps and not have to pay for the other two seats, as long as I do not make any money from the app??

We can build and distribute our non-íncome-producing apps by getting a single developer seat ($449 per year); not a trivial amount but not much for a hobby (less than membership at my local golf club or gym, even before I think about buying clubs or trainers or replacing all the lost golf balls). The expiration of the lifetime license will be compensated for by a discount at the first license renewal (in December 2025??), though we don’t yet know how that will be calculated.
