What you give up either way
- Curated collection and brand trust from Grabui
- Priority support, Discord/community access, and promotional discounts
- Any exclusive or proprietary templates referenced as 'coming soon'
- Lifetime automatic updates and vendor-managed asset curation
An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Grabui Library, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
