Interesting idea. Some quick reactions:
- I'd just call it a wizard, skip "advisor"
- The wizard questions would require a lot of work to be completely accurate
- The warranty/liability limitation questions seem silly to even ask
I'm not completely sold on a wizard, but the ability to filter is nice, brought up before eg in #637
This page is aimed to help beginner developers choose the most suitable open source license for their projects. It offers a guided wizard to narrow down options based on specific requirements and preferences, and also allows users to filter licenses by various criteria like permissions, conditions, and limitations. This helps ensure that developers select a license that aligns with how they want their project to be used and shared.
It uses the /licenses page as a base, just with a full list of licenses and additional JS functionality to filter the list.
