I used, and liked, the predecessor called Revolution which was closer to the original HyperCard ethos. They are now stuffing so much into LiveCode it feels lost in itself. As a company I find them all over the place with this product.

    They did yes, after quite a few funding campaigns targeted at their users. I felt quite bitter about that and I fell for the hype myself.

      Thank you for this. It lives! I will try these forks out. Don't you just love open source!

      Thoughts on the rebranding of tIDE? I'm sorry I missed it as "OXT Lite", but worry about it being presented Athena-like as born fully-formed from a single developer...
