Open Source License

Free for open source and personal projects


Licensed under GPLv3

The open source license is designed for you to use GLightbox to build open source and personal projects. The GLightbox open source license is GPLv3.

The GPLv3 has many terms, but the most important is how it is sticky when you distribute your work publicly. From the GPL FAQ:

💡

If you release the modified version to the public in some way, the GPL requires you to make the modified source code available to the program’s users, under the GPL.

Releasing your project that uses GLightbox under the GPLv3, in turn, requires your project to be licensed under the GPLv3. If you are okay with this, feel free to use GLightbox under the GPLv3, without purchasing a commercial license.
