Clarify license? #3

Closed dspreadbury closed 4 years ago

dspreadbury commented 4 years ago

Thanks for writing this app, Ben. Have you considered adding some explicit information about the license under which the software is released? I would suggest using the MIT License unless any of the libraries/code snippets you used in the creation of the application would preclude that.

Yes, very good point. I must defer to m'learned friend in such matters. Is it sufficient just to write "This is released under the MIT Licence" in the read me?

dspreadbury commented 4 years ago

It should be sufficient to put the text of the MIT license in a text file called LICENSE in the root of your repository.

GitHub docs here: https://help.github.com/en/github/creating-cloning-and-archiving-repositories/licensing-a-repository

Text of MIT license (with spaces for project name and copyright info etc.) here: https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT

Done!
