## License and Attribution
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#### _If you plan on contributing to the base project, no attribution is needed!_ Feel free to proceed to the [next steps](CONTRIBUTING.md#Rust).
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Otherwise, below are key points to understand from the [Managarr License, Version 1.0](LICENSE):
|
||||||
|
1. **Non-Commercial Use**:
|
||||||
|
- Managarr is licensed solely for non-commercial purposes. Any commercial use of Managarr (e.g., selling or offering as a paid service) requires separate permission.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
2. **Attribution when Forking and Redistributing Without Contributing back to Main Project**:
|
||||||
|
- **If you fork the project and distribute it separately** (e.g., publish or _publicly_ host it independently from the original project), you are required to provide attribution.
|
||||||
|
- You may credit the original author by using any of the following phrasing:
|
||||||
|
- "Thanks to Alexander J. Clarke (Dark-Alex-17) for creating the original Managarr project!"
|
||||||
|
- "Forked from the Managarr project, created by Alexander J. Clarke (Dark-Alex-17)"
|
||||||
|
- "This software is based on the original Managarr project by Alexander J. Clarke (Dark-Alex-17)"
|
||||||
|
- "Inspired by Alexander J. Clarke (Dark-Alex-17)'s Managarr project"
|
||||||
|
- If changes are made to the base Managarr project, please note those modifications and provide the new attribution accordingly.
