No, the application isn’t open source, primarily because I plan to actively support and maintain it for many years to come. But it’s a one-time payment so you don’t have to pay anything after that!
You could distribute the code under a libre/open source license with the program after someone buys it. Open source doesn’t mean the code is public, just that the users have rights to access and change the code.
How would I go about doing that though? If I give the users an open source license on purchase, compilation and reselling will be pretty easy to do and I don’t want that to happen for something I worked very hard on.
Is it open source?
