I was looking at the licensing on your main home page, to verify its usability (and then all its sub-components, been burned by this before... :grimacing: ) and you stated you were using animate.css, so I was looking at the site's license for it and it says: image

Then I noticed you have a "machine" generated fork of it here that you are directly using, rather than directly linking to animate.css.

This appear to be a interesting grey/gray area here on what the license should be... (IANAL, but I believe that all derivatives should be under the same source license.) --- Have you perhaps received permission from them to re-license the animate.css code since you are directly using there CSS (which is under the Hippocratic License) to generate your CSS which you are putting under the MIT license?

Hmm, doing a little bit more research -- it appears that the version on NPM (v4 and all older versions) are all MIT, so no concern on the version you are using, which is awesome news. :grinning:

They have updated the license on the website, but only the newest code in github and the apparently when v5 is released will be under the Hippocratic License. https://github.com/animate-css/animate.css/issues/1516

You might just have to stay on v4 or see if you can get permission to continue using v5 under MIT...
