Heyo! Another co-founder here. Excited to see Mito on HN :) Thanks @alefnula for posting!
+1 to everything @narush said.
It's important to us that the software we build is empowering to users and not restrictive. This plays out in two primary ways:
1) Since Mito is open source and generates Python code for every edit, Mito doesn't lock users into a 'Mito ecosystem', instead it help users interact with the powerful & robust Python ecosystem. 2) Because Mito is an extension to Jupyter Notebooks + JupyterLab, Mito improves your existing workflows instead of completely altering your data analytics stack.
Excited to interact with you all in the comments :)
- kite_and_code 4y agoCan you please clarify what you mean by "mito is open-source"? Last time I checked the code was under a proprietary license. Edit: I found in another comment below that mito is now available under GPL license here: https://github.com/mito-ds/monorepo/blob/dev/LICENSE https://github.com/mito-ds/monorepo/blob/dev/LICENSE Edit2: Just saw your answer now - thanks for the clarification and links!
- aarondia 4y agoMito is licensed [1] under the AGPL liscence. The TLDR of the license is that you can use, distribute, and modify Mito for free, but any modifications that you make need to be shared back with the Mito community. There is an additional version of Mito, Mito Pro, that is licensed under a different license that provides access to advanced functionality only if you are paying for a Mito Pro / Enterprise subscription.

- teruakohatu 4y agoDoes AGPL mean it can only be used in a notebook for which the notebook itself is open source? Or does it mean it can only be used with notebook software (eg. Jupyter) that is open source but in a closed source notebook?
