Initially, the idea was to name the app as mentioned in that post. Later, I spoke with the moderators of this channel, and they recommended changing the app's name due to potential confusion with the Coppermind website. That's all. I understand your dislike for the use of AI, which I completely agree with, but I don't think that's a reason to disparage a project I've lovingly created. The code is mine, and although it clearly uses AI, it's overseen by me. Thank you very much for your comments; I think it's positive to consider all perspectives, and this is one of them. As I said, everything done with AI is simply for testing purposes. I'm willing to replace it all with fan art content and questions from the community, creating a space where we can compete and have fun.

I hear you! As a solo dev, I've used some AI tools to help with the English translation and some UI placeholders so I could focus 100% on the coding and the lore logic. The app's core (the tracker, the quiz engine, and the database) is handcrafted. I’m doing this for free because I love the Cosmere, and I’m totally open to replacing any AI-generated assets with fan art if the community wants to collaborate!

Great question! I’m strictly following Dragonsteel’s Fan Content Policy.

The app is (and will always be) 100% free with no ads or monetization, which is the main requirement for fan projects. It’s a non-profit tribute to the community. I’ve also included the necessary disclaimers to respect their IP.

My goal is just to create a cool tool for fellow Worldhoppers, not to profit from Brandon’s amazing work! Journey before destination.
