No GPL please!

This effectively makes it impossible to use on iOS, as the App Store is incompatible with GPL. A few options:

  1. A permissive license - Apache/MIT
  2. Weak copyleft - I've used MPL 2.0 for the angular app for this purpose (was looking into NativeScript back then). This is still somewhat of a gray zone, but OSSE hints we should be fine with it.
  3. Dual licensing - I've zero experience with this, but it should work too.

I don't know much about licencing, I just used what was used in the original InstiApp. And it seemed good enough. Anyway, I'm changing it to MIT. Though, I don't know exactly what it means. I'll close this when I merge some commits to master prior to adding the MIT licence.
