As XOD is an open source platform, then why there is compilation limitations…Will XOD won’t compile further after exceeding the limit.

There are many messages about compilation limit, there are 1000 for registered users, and I think it is a monthly limit. But in my case I don’t use online compilation except for some simulations. In menu debug you can compile with board or copy the code and compile with Arduino IDE

Indeed, XOD has its source open. You can find the source on GitHub ([https://github.com/xodio/xod](https://github.com/xodio/xod)) and do whatever you want as long as it follows AGPL free license terms.

What’s for the limits, we set them on our cloud usage rate. Things like simulation program compilation are performed in the cloud, on our servers because it would be very hard for an average xoder to configure the necessary toolchain on the local machine. Our servers cost money, so we limit the usage. Soon it will be possible to sign up for a paid plan to have big limits.

Anyway, the limits are replenished continuously (not monthly, or even daily, but once per 10 minutes). See [https://xod.io/settings/billing/](https://xod.io/settings/billing/) for the log.
