Legal

License

Kipui ships under the MIT license. What that permits, what it requires of you, and what it does not cover.

Last updated

1. In plain terms

You may use Kipui in anything — personal projects, client work, closed commercial products — for free. You may modify it, copy pieces of it into your own codebase, and redistribute it. You do not owe us a fee, an attribution in your UI, or a copy of your changes.

  • The one requirement: if you redistribute the library or a substantial portion of its source, keep the copyright notice and the licence text with it. Shipping a built application to your users is not redistribution in this sense — bundling the components into your app and deploying it needs nothing from you.
  • No warranty: the software comes as it is. If it breaks something, that is on you, not on us. Section 3 is the version of that sentence which holds up in court.
  • No trademark grant: the licence covers the code. It does not give you the right to use the Kipui name or logo to brand your own product or to imply we endorse it.

2. The licence, in full

The same text ships as LICENSE in the repository and in the published npm package.

MIT License

Copyright (c) 2026 Kipui

Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy

in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights

3. What this licence does not cover

  • Peer dependencies. React, Tailwind CSS and the other packages you install alongside Kipui carry their own licences. Ours says nothing about them.
  • Fonts and sample imagery. Typefaces used on this site and any placeholder content in the block previews are licensed by their own authors. Replace them with your own before shipping.
  • This website. The prose, branding and page designs here are not part of the MIT grant — see the terms. The code samples on those pages are.

4. Contributions

Contributions to the repository are accepted under the same MIT licence. Opening a pull request means you have the right to submit the work and that it may be released under those terms.
