Show Notes

Understanding open source licenses is critical if you're a software developer. What are your rights and responsibilities when you incorporate an open source library in your program? In this episode we explain why we have licenses, the different types of open source licenses, and best practices for an open source practitioner.

Note that the licenses we refer to as laissez faire licenses in this episode, are also widely known as permissive licenses.
