The repository is private.

@B4nan Yes I figured. May I ask why it was made private?

@Drormusic I messaged you a few weeks ago but no reply, maybe I got the email wrong?

AFAIK it's one of our products we develop internally, we usually don't make such code public. I don't have a better answer, all I know is that it is intentional.
