Each purchaser owns the car but not the blueprint. This is equivalent to creating a software app and selling it out of a box to all comers.
BUT, sometimes software is like building a house - it is designed just how the client wants it and is individual. When I buy a house, I certainly expect the architect to supply all relevant plans. So, are you building an application to sell in a box, or are you making something specifically for one client?
