Backspace is free and open source software under the GNU Affero General Public
License v3.0 (AGPL-3.0-only); see the LICENSE file. A separate commercial license
is also available; see LICENSE-COMMERCIAL.md.

It bundles, depends on, or redistributes the third-party components listed
below. Each remains under its own license.

================================================================================
Sound effects
================================================================================

In-app sound cues (packages/web/public/sounds/*.ogg) are original works
authored for the Backspace project and are covered by the project license.

================================================================================
Icons and brand assets
================================================================================

The Backspace name, logo, and app icons (assets/brand/,
packages/web/public/icons/, packages/desktop build resources) are original
works and trademarks of the project. Neither the AGPL nor the commercial license
grants any right to use these trademarks; trademark use is governed separately by
applicable law.

In-application UI icons are hand-authored inline SVGs and are covered by the
project license.

================================================================================
npm dependencies
================================================================================

Backspace depends on open-source packages distributed via npm, all under
permissive licenses (predominantly MIT, ISC, Apache-2.0, and BSD variants).
The image-processing dependency "sharp" loads libvips, distributed as a
prebuilt binary under the LGPL-3.0-or-later license; it is used unmodified and
dynamically, and is not statically linked into Backspace.

To regenerate the full, current dependency license inventory, run:

  pnpm licenses list --prod

================================================================================
Emoji
================================================================================

Emoji selection is provided by @emoji-mart/data and @emoji-mart/react (MIT).
No emoji glyph images are bundled; glyphs render using the host operating
system's emoji font.
