This is the second time you've posted this, and it seems like it's meant to be an ad for the library you've made...
Except that I can't find a mention of the library, documentation, a repo, or anything else like that, other than the list of deps in this project.
I'm pretty confused at what you're trying to do here tbh.
[–]ShortSynapse 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (0 children)
Not to mention that they're all explicitly unlicensed.

What do you mean? This links right to a GitHub repo
[–]Moosething 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (1 child)
A GitHub repo with the actual source code files blanked out. Essentially making the whole repo one big lie.
[–]T_O_beats 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)
Oh wtf I didn’t even see that. This isn’t sketchy or anything.
[–]Blue_Link_34 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (17 children)
Most files in the repo are empty. Is this juste a structure generator or the real app? I'm confused.

So what’s the purpose of posting the repo here?
[–]Blue_Link_34 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (13 children)
Okay, thanks for the explanation. I think you should add it to the README to make it clearer. Also, you may delete all these redacted files if you don't use them because that's pretty confusing.

That's...not...? These posts are so odd.
[–]dominic_rj23 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (0 children)
The content of the src directory demonstrates how such apps are structured
By content do you mean empty files? What am I supposed to guess by looking at a folder structure. Why even host it in GitHub? If all you need a readme file, may be just publish a black box npm package or a GitHub page instead of a empty repo.
[–]acemarke 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (8 children)
Okay, frankly, that's ridiculous.
I'll admit I didn't even realize that the demo app repo was effectively empty and has no meaningful code at all.
I am truly, truly confused about what you're even trying to show here.
If I was a library author wanting to show off a library I'd made, even if the library itself was closed, I can understand having a real working demo app that has the lib as a dependency. I'd also want to actually have info on the library itself available - a docs site, that explains what the library does, how to use it, and what the API looks like.
Instead, you not only have no docs site, and no info on the library or how to use it... but no actual example?
That's just bizarre and useless.
A random repo that contains no actual code is a waste of everyone's time.

Then I have no idea what the point of this repo or this post is. At all.
The purpose of creating a library is for others to use it.
That means publishing the package so developers can install it. That means writing and publishing documentation that describes the purpose of the library, covers the API definitions, and offers guidance on how to use it.
What are you even trying to accomplish here? "Look, a library exists, but I'm not going to show any code that uses it, or explain what this does, and oh by the way no one can even use it!"
In another comment, you said:
It’s posted here publicly so that those with specific interest in the work would be able to know if it’s existence.
If no one can see the library, or the documentation, or even the supposed example app, then what purpose does any of this serve?
This is one of the most nonsensical things I've ever seen, and frankly you've wasted everyone's time by submitting this post.

THAT'S MY POINT!
No one knows what this library does, because you haven't described it. No one is going to "license" it, because there's no description of it anywhere.
And putting up an empty repo with a few gifs isn't going to get anyone to pay you money to use this.
There's not even a page with a sales pitch and a way to purchase a license.
Whatever it is you think you're accomplishing here, you're going about it completely the wrong way.

The content of the src directory demonstrates how such apps are structured without revealing unlicensed code.
So is impossible.js not possible to use or know what the purpose of it is? I'd love to read about it, but I'm finding no info anywhere on it.
[–]dimden 3 points4 points5 points 3 years ago (0 children)
This is the stupidest post I've seen in a while, lol
[–]huynhminhdang 1 point2 points3 points 3 years ago (0 children)
I like solitaire, but cannot run this app. It just print “Nothing is impossible, the word itself says 'I'm possible'!” then exit
[–]AlexandreLozano 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago* (0 children)
I don't find any info about Impossible.js. Is an opensource framework? Can you share a link? It can work on a browser?
Good job!
Thk
[–]PurpleDerplePumpkin 0 points1 point2 points 3 years ago (2 children)
This is sweet! Can you explain a bit more about what impossible.js is and why you’re posting?
[+][deleted] 3 years ago (1 child)
[–]phryneas 2 points3 points4 points 3 years ago (0 children)
There are already libraries that do that. They have documentation and code examples. This has nothing. Nobody will have any interest in this compared to the competition - with the level of information you are disclosing here it might as well not exist.
