License? #10

Closed icculus closed 1 year ago

Can we either put this code under the zlib license, like the rest of SDL, or make it explicitly public domain?

I ran license-checker on the repo and got this:

$ npx license-checker --summary

Welcome to npm hell :smiling_imp:

I think it makes most sense to explicitly license the code public domain. We want this code to be copied and adopted as much as possible. The code lives independent from SDL, so we don't need to worry about incompatibilities

Welcome to npm hell 😈

Gosh!

Ok, public domain it is. I'll stick a LICENSE.txt in here.
