    If YOU own the code, then YOU are the only one who gets to keep the source code. Clients get installation files, compiled or otherwise. And a written licensing agreement that asserts your rights over the product and says what they can and cannot do with those install files. Don't skimp on the licensing part - write it once, write it well, and then you can reuse it later for other projects.

    Especially if your work is plain text script, don't skimp on the licensing agreement. There is nothing to prevent your work from being copied and shared in that case, but without a stringently worded license, you may find you have a hard time making a case for compensation if you find your work has been stolen. Wouldn't hurt to also have at least a few files embedded with steganographic information as well. It's hard for a dishonest person to later prove their assertion that "it's all MY work!" when decoded key files in the application show your copyright declaration. :-)

    The main things to cover are the ownership of the source code,
    • Are you okay with them modifying the source?
    • Source code cannot be distributed to unauthorised parties.
    Example Terms: https://github.com/kenpusney/proprietary/blob/master/License-Terms-Template.md#restrictions

    Then have a Service Level Agreement (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Service-level_agreement)
    • what is considered a "breakdown" or "problem" that can be fixed.
    • In the case of breakdown, how fast can you fix it.
    • How will the SLA be affected by custom changes.
    As for your sales model, you can have a free subscription term with the initial purchase or development service (3-6 months, where the SLA is active) and afterwards they can pay per quarter to keep the SLA.
