This will allow the project to continue as it's a great tool. I'd rather not make a new tool and repeat the same efforts the developers here went though.

package.json says MIT. A LICENSE file would make this more obvious and appear in the About section in the first pageview. If you would like me to make a PR for this, I could help with that.

@TechnologyClassroom Go for it.

I view open source licenses much like health insurance in the US; an evil necessary only because of an even stupider and more evil situation. Copyright might have been a good idea hundreds of years ago when it was first created, but it's actively harmful in the modern world and further software should never have been subject to copyright law in the first place.

And that's my political rant for the afternoon. Carry on.

I do not understand how open source is a necessary evil, but I do agree that copyright is actively harmful.
