5 days ago To follow the GPLV3 you need to make your entire app open source. No permit is required.
Your project does not have to be on GitHub, but the source code must be public somehow.
The GPLV3 forces your project to be under the same license as well.
If you don't release your code, then you are breaking the terms of the license, this means the orignal developer could potentially sue you (probably not going to happen but it is a possibility).
However, If you use or modify the software privately without distributing it, you don't have to share the code.
Giving people at your company a runable copy of the code does count as distribution, but just sharing them the URL to a running instance does not count as distribution.
If this project had an AGPLv3 license, then network use (sharing the URL) does count as distribution. However, under the current GPLV3 it does not.
