Team SPIRIT. This is what we call ourselves. This is what we seek to embody.
The name was coined on the 11th of August in 2020, half in jest. And somehow, it just stuck.
We are a small tight-knit group of a few independent developers and despite our size, we have garnered over 35k downloads (and counting!) for both Lazuli and SwordieDB combined.
Openness. Wikitionary provides a pretty hefty explanation:
(The) degree of accessibility to view, use, and modify computer code in a shared environment with legal rights generally held in common and preventing proprietary restrictions on the right of others to continue viewing, using, modifying and sharing that code
Team SPIRIT firmly believes in the importance of openness.
We see the open-source community as an invaluable vector for education and the advancement of computation techniques.
This is why we offer a wide selection of open-source projects that seek to simplify computation through the medium of our choice: MapleStory.
We hope that our projects can entice more people to take on programming through the use of our favourite childhood game.
We will continue to offer more and more-varied MapleStory-related projects as a gateway into computing.
We offer various small modular projects which are compatible with other existing MapleStory-related projects, in hopes of enriching the community.
We intend to take this as far as we can so that one day, anyone can simply pick and choose from a plethora of options, and mix-and-match to their hearts desire.
