Can you make Defold Extensions open source?

I can confirm that this is the way we’re heading with these extensions (we voted yes too ^^). We want the users to be able to help themselves, in situations just like this.

The only thing that has stopped us is when to do it, and how to do it. When: When we have a pipeline that supports it (which we do now with native extensions). How: Make sure our SDK supports the things that our internal extensions needs to make them work.

Our internal extensions have been there for quite some time, and aren’t fully using the extension SDK, but in fact also have some extra glue to make them setup properly. They should use the SDK though, which means we probably need to add some new life cycle functions/hooks to the SDK. As for the IAP extension, I don’t think it needs any extra functions, but it will take some time to clean it up and put it online. I really don’t think it will be ready for this week.
