I checked the homepage. There is no obvious information about the type of license for this, price if any, etc.

"Private beta soon" says (to me) that it will be proprietary, and the fact that the "first class" clients are JavaScript and .Net makes me think the backend is .net based also, which pretty much implies running on Windows server.

This of course is all speculation, but without information what else can we do?

    The license and price will be decided before the product is released, which will probably be around July or August.

    I will provide clients for JS and .NET as well as any others that are worthwhile, but they are thin wrappers around an HTTP API.

    The server is a node application with a Sqlite database. I intend to provide a quality installation experience for windows, linux and osx.

    Thanks for taking a look.

      At the very least I would recommend you allow it to work with a full RDBMS like MySQL/compatible or PostgreSQL. SQLite means you can't have online replication, which means you can't make it HA.
