MITlicensed

MITlicensed refers to software released under the MIT License, a short and permissive open‑source license attributed to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Software described as MIT‑licensed can be used freely in a wide range of projects, including commercial and proprietary products, with minimal restrictions.

Permissions: The MIT License grants broad rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and sell copies of the software. It does not require source code disclosure or derivative works to be released under the same license.

Conditions: Redistributors must include the original copyright notice and the license text in all copies or substantial portions of the software.

Liability and warranty: The license disclaims warranties and limits the authors' liability, stating the software is provided "as is."

Impact: Its permissive terms make MIT‑licensed software popular for libraries, frameworks, and tools intended for reuse. It is compatible with many other licenses and widely used in both open‑source and commercial contexts.

History: The license originated at MIT in the 1980s and has since become one of the most widely adopted open‑source licenses due to its simplicity and permissiveness.

MIT‑licensed software is widely used across languages and platforms.
