What you give up either way

  • Native app store presence and related UX polish unless you build native clients
  • Any community, brand, or existing user base and social graphs
  • The original app's unrevealed implementation details and polish from a dedicated team

An open-source project doing the core job proves a replacement is possible. It does not prove it matches Hero Fit, and it does not prove anyone has run it for a month. How we decide.
