- binarycoffee 2y agoLOX is apparently MPL, so a bit easier to work with than Nyx' AGPL, but still at odd with the MIT/Apache2 combo that has become the norm in the Rust world.
- oakwhiz 2y agoThere is an older version of Nyx which is Apache licensed https://github.com/oakwhiz/nyx-space-apache https://github.com/oakwhiz/nyx-space-apache
- DarmokJalad1701 2y agoThere is also ANISE made by the same author: https://github.com/nyx-space/anise https://github.com/nyx-space/anise
- helgee 2y agoNyx is the OG Rust-based astrodynamics library and much more mature. Lox started as a vehicle for myself to learn Rust and at that point I did not feel comfortable contributing to an established code base.
- aero-glide2 2y agoThe only downside I see is agpl. Im not anti agpl, but truth is this would slow commercial adoption.
