For personal use, regardless of the context (student project, starting a business, teaching, etc.), you may use ScrollReveal 4 under the GPLv3—which requires that your project also be open source under the GPLv3.
Loosely speaking, you would purchase a commercial license if you:
A) would like your source code to be private, or B) are being paid to build a site using ScrollReveal, or C) would like to sell a digital product (WordPress theme, UI builder, etc.) using ScrollReveal
If you would like, I can send you a sample license for you review the actual legally binding copy: just send an email to service@scrollrevealjs.org
I also just want to add that purchasing a ScrollReveal 4 license is a one-time act that supports on-going customer support, feature development, bug fixes and performance enhancements.
I understand not everyone has equal purchasing power, and if the license fee is prohibitive, you can always use ScrollReveal 3 (and earlier versions) any way you'd like: they are MIT licensed!
Happy 2019! 🎉
Thanks for that!
I'm just learning for now, so probably not going to be able to use it that well at the moment, but if in the future it becomes a reality then happy days!!!
Kind regards

Excuse me, @jlmakes. Can I use this plug in my MIT license public repo. This is an open-sourced project (a template for people using 11ty and tailwind css). I will add this to acknowledge section in readme.me after installing ScrollReveal.
@cokaps016 No, the GPL3 license requires that open source consumers make their project GPL3 as well.
As I mentioned above, if you're willing to use an unsupported version in your project, ScrollReveal 3 remains MIT licensed and free to use. (The documentation for which can be found in the Wiki.)
I've always been confused with this license so here's my question. I'm developing a single page business landing site. Is this considered commercial use? If not, does the site's code need to be "open soureced?"
