Not sure if this belongs here but just thought someone might find my little christmas break project usefull.

Some software gives out a license file that needs to be manually pointed somewhere and don’t support some sort of license floating or adding up licenses into a single license file. All this makes license management from a Systems admin perspective quite annoying.

So I created a little file based license management tool that could come in handy in all kinds of cases.

It sort of makes file based licenses floating… 🤷‍♀️
