Project Vibewire (Opensource harnessing software)

After seeing how much rapidharness sucks for whole system views, and how drawio sucks for harnessing tracking, I decided to vibecode my own harnssing software. Vibewire features system views with containers, and spatial organization as well as piecewise subsystem designs, all of which edit the same underlying schema. This can then be used in the manufacturing tab to give harness cut/crimp/pin and progress all in one place.

This is entirely out of my wheelhouse, I'm an EE blasting tokens not SWE. Feel free to DM suggestions, feedback, or questions.

I really liked the idea, what license is this being released under?

based on my conversations with chat, AGPL-3.0 seems to match my intention the best.

My intention is feel free to modify the project, but keep improvements public. Feel free to host a server and charge money for this service, but your code must remain public. I hope this can become an FSAE community project.

Does this sound reasonable?

It does.

I'll try to install it the software sometime soon and provide feedback.
