  • emailengine

    Headless email client

  • I use a similar model for EmailEngine (https://emailengine.app/). The code is dual-licensed under AGPL and a commercial license. The app has limited functionality by default - you can either buy a license key to activate it and use the app under the commercial license. Or fork the code, remove limitations (really easy to do, one or two lines of changes), and use it as AGPL. At first, I did not have that artificial limitation and no one was interested in buying the commercial license. Once I added that extra step, I got some customers.

  • SurveyJS

    Open-Source JSON Form Builder to Create Dynamic Forms Right in Your App. With SurveyJS form UI libraries, you can build and style forms in a fully-integrated drag & drop form builder, render them in your JS app, and store form submission data in any backend, inc.
