Announcing Code Watch Open Source
We’re excited to announce a free version of our soon-to-be-released GitHub iPhone client, Code Watch. It will include all the features of the paid version except for access to private repositories, making it quite suitable for open source developers choosing to host their GitHub projects publicly. For that reason, we’re calling it ‘Code Watch Open Source’. We know public code hosting isn’t technically synonymous with open source, but we preferred the name to ‘Code Watch Lite’.
We decided to release this app for a couple reasons. One, we value and want to embrace the open source community. While we think we can do much more, and intend to contribute open source code directly, we hope the community values this contribution. Two, Code Watch Open Source will serve as a trial version for potential customers and give us another marketing data point.
So if you have public repositories on GitHub, or want to evaluate the paid version of Code Watch, check out Code Watch Open Source on the iPhone App Store (available soon). We’re really proud of this app and we think you’ll love it.
Both versions of Code Watch have been submitted for release, so expect an announcement soon.
