What you can do

Apache 2.0 is a permissive open-source license. It grants broad rights to use, reproduce, modify and distribute the software, including as part of commercial products, subject to the license conditions.

  • Use Kuayle for any purpose, including commercial use
  • Modify the source code to fit your needs
  • Distribute original or modified copies
  • Include Kuayle code in a larger work
  • Apply different terms to your modifications where the license permits

Requirements

Redistribution carries conditions. Read Sections 4 and 6 of the license before shipping Kuayle or a derivative work; the summary below is not legal advice.

  • Include the copyright notice and license in redistributions
  • State any significant changes made to the original code
  • Do not use project names or marks to imply endorsement
  • No warranty — the software is provided "as is"

Patent grant

Apache 2.0 includes an explicit patent grant from contributors to users. This means anyone who contributes code to Kuayle grants a patent license to anyone who uses that code. This is an important protection that some other permissive licenses (like MIT) do not include.

  • Contributors grant a patent license to users
  • Protects users against patent claims from contributors
  • Patent grant terminates if you sue for patent infringement
