TiddlyWiki for Commercial Use

Hello There,

I could not find any information for this, so could you please tell me, whether this Wiki is free for a company to make a knowledge database?

Kind Regards,
Martin

Hi @derherrdesschreckens and welcome to the project. TiddlyWiki is published under the permissive BSD license which permits anyone to do whatever they like with the code, although we do ask for acknowledgement. TiddlyWiki makes an excellent company knowledgebase, and you’ll find people here who can share experiences of similar projects.

The license is here:

https://tiddlywiki.com/#License

In layman’s terms, the license says that you can take TiddlyWiki and do anything you want with it without any license fee payment or other legal obligation to the creators of TiddlyWiki or anyone else. The quid pro quo is that there is no warranty or guarantee with open source projects like TiddlyWiki. You can’t sue the contributors to TiddlyWiki for any loss or damage due to the use of TiddlyWiki: even if your data is lost due to a tragic chain of circumstances that involves TiddlyWiki.

You are respectfully requested that to make an attribution to the project, but there’s no obligation to do so.

For the avoidance of doubt, any information that you choose to store within your own copy of TiddlyWiki remains yours; using TiddlyWiki to publish content doesn’t change whatever rights you may have to that content.

Hi Jeremy,

Thank you very much for your fast reply. I will forward this to my boss.

Kind Regards!
