What Hacker News says

5 sources
From the FAQ, https://github.com/yue/help > But once you have done modifications to Yue's source code, all your code linked with Yue have to be open sourced with MS-RL. The only way to remove this limitation is to subscribe to Yue's paid plan. > The license seems like a non starter. > Note that the license of Yue has less restrictions than LGPL, it does not require you to open source your project when you statically link with Yue, or compile Yue's source code as part of your project. > So if you are fine with LGPL libraries, there is no reason to worry about Yue's license. > Yue is just another open source project with dual licenses, and it has less restrictions than most dual licenses projects. With the LGPL you can change the code, compile and dynamically link without releasing your own code. It's a significant difference.
In Show HN: Yue – A new library to create cross-platform GUI apps
Hi everyone, I have written a C++ library for creating native GUI apps, it also has language bindings for Lua and JavaScript (V8). In the past I have written the Electron framework, which is a popular project for creating desktop apps with Chrome web engine and Node.js, while this library allows you to create native desktop apps. If you want to see some screenshots and example code, check out the sample apps repo: https://github.com/yue/yue-sample-apps. If you are wondering how this library is different from other GUI toolkits, check out the FAQ: https://github.com/yue/help#faq. If you want to learn this library quickly, there is a detailed tutorial on using Yue with Node.js: http://libyue.com/docs/v0.2.0/js/guides/getting_started.html.
