Introduction
When creating a repo on GitHub, you need to choose a license for your project. Have you ever wondered what each of these licenses means?
A license is a legal document that defines the rights of users to access the source code of a project. There are many different types of licenses, each with different rights and restrictions.
GitHub Licenses
Each type of license has its own terms and conditions, but they are generally divided into two main categories.
- Copyleft licenses require that all copies of the source code be distributed under the same license. This means that software licensed under the GPL is always open-source and free.
- Permissive licenses allow users to use and distribute the source code in any way they want, as long as they give credit to the author.
