We chose the MIT License for Zvelte because:

• Permissiveness: It allows maximum freedom for users
• Compatibility: It’s compatible with most other licenses
• Industry Standard: Widely recognized and trusted by developers and organizations
• Community Friendly: Encourages adoption and contribution

Using Zvelte in Your Project

When using Zvelte in your projects, you should:

1. Include Attribution: While not strictly required for CLI usage, it’s appreciated
2. Respect the License: If distributing modified versions, include the license
3. No Warranty: Understand that the software is provided “as is”

If you’re building a project with Zvelte, you don’t need to include the license in your final application. The license applies to Zvelte itself, not to projects you create with it.
