Yes – as of writing I've sold enough units to pay for the costs a few times over as well as server costs for the custom API I built. Some profits will be reserved for London based charities.

What stack are you using for the API server? Any chance of a quick article on that?

Is this a new trend to put $ after the amount (eg 5$ instead of the correct $5)? I've been seeing it a lot lately.

That's how it's written in French and maybe some other languages as well. I guess people writing this way are not native English speakers.
