License Check

👋 Hello, we're so glad you stopped by!

You know that your GitHub repos should have a license so that other people can reuse your code but you're not sure if you actually added one for all of your repositories? Just enter your name and check!


Why is this important? Jeff Atwood wrote it down once.

Don't know which license is the right one for you? Head over to choosealicense.com

We use unauthenticated requests against the GitHub API. This means that you are only allowed to make 60 requests per hour and IP address.

The actual license checking is done with GitHub's license api so we are only able to tell you about licenses that GitHub understands.

The source code for this page can be found on GitHub. And yes, it has a license 😉
