WEBIX BLOG

We are looking for developers, project managers, teamleads, technical writers, startups founders or just talented authors to contribute their experience and useful tips to our blog. Just as you appreciate your favorite food blogger (who, by the way, may be a builder, an accountant, or a marketer by background) for his or her wonderful recipes, we value our guest writers for the expertise and experience they are willing to share with the world, not for their profession.

Magic time is coming and our Team is delighted to send you our warmest Christmas and New Year wishes.
May your Christmas be filled with warmth, peace, happiness and special moments spent with your beloved ones. We wish you and your families a wonderful new year full of new opportunities, abundant joy and spectacular success.

Hey everyone!

New week, new beginning. The number of our subscribers and customers is growing, and we are certainly pleased with that. 🙂 But the more customers appear, the more questions are asked. As a result, the idea of creating a series of articles considering answers on questions related to a particular topic was born. Today we’ll speak about Webix License.

There are a couple of ways of how you can get our product:

1. you can download free Trial version, to start and to try our Pro Edition, which has advanced functionality, goes under Webix Developer license and can be distributed in commercial projects. You can use Webix trial version for 1 month only.;
2. you can download Standard Edition, which has standard functionality, goes under Open source (GNU GPLv3) and can’t be distributed in not open source projects;
3. and finally, you can purchase any of our existing licenses, receive an email with the link, download the package and start developing.

We love open source and are willing to make this part of Webix community bigger and happier. Starting from Webix 2.4, in addition to the ability to use Webix in GPL projects, we add a FLOSS Exception to the existing GPL License. Thanks to this update, you can use Webix in your applications distributed under MIT, BSD and other open source licenses!

Thus, you can use Webix in open source projects that exists under a license that is a part of the FLOSS Exception List without taking into consideration the GPLv3 restrictions. The only requirement implies that your open source project should be intended for using by end-users but not for creating a library for software development purposes.
