Same for software, the comparison table says MIT, other parts say GPL v3.
Also the whole concept of exam mode which is in any way effective seems contradictory with GPLv3. Any hardware means which would limit the ability to use modified version of software would violate GPLv3.
The first thing I noticed in the repo is a next config, which I couldn't fathom. I then realized this is the "marketing website" for the project.
Deploying a neo-vibey website for a calculator is a wild choice. On top of that, the first things (the buttons) dont work.
This does not spark the vibe I want. You either go full hacker-mode (and end up with a relatively nerdy website that is more about technicals and less about marketing), or you go full-on stakeholder-mode (you prioritize that your product is going to completely smash your competitor, making stakeholders feel FOMO).
I'm pretty sure they just vibe coded the site in half an hour on a lark. High gloss without any real direction or intent behind it is the new "vanilla html page with no CSS file", or maybe less charitably, the new clip art.
And that's fine, right? Like people can do what they want. We're just going to get used to it.
Also, what's up with all the junk in readme? The project structure, random stats, tables. How bloating readme should help?
upd: Okay, there is a tiny disclaimer that the project is vibe-coded.

I don't get it. At all.
