I liked the example of 1 line of code generation a table of random stock data. But, this is not free or open source?

- toastking 8y agoThere is an open source port of K called Kona: https://github.com/kevinlawler/kona https://github.com/kevinlawler/kona
- codetrotter 8y agoIt’s not a port, it’s a separate implementation. The difference in meaning between these two words is sufficiently important that it’s worth pointing out IMO. Porting software means to adapt an existing piece of software to a different computing environment. Ports are based on source code and/or assets from the original piece of software that is being ported. As such a port would be derivative work, meaning that the authors would not be able to release their software without permission from the copyright holder(s) of the software that was being ported.
