Licence
-------

[](#licence)

RainTPL 3, like its antecessor Rain.TPL version 2, is, as of 2018-06-07, published under the MIT Licence.

The above applies to RainTPL 3 itself, not the entire content of this repository. Some of the `example-*.php` files and the content below `templates/` in this repository are copies of external code under various licences, such as:

- Twitter Bootstrap, under the Apache v2 licence
- LESS - Leaner CSS, under the Apache v2 licence

Note that not all external content comes with full source code, it’s usually just a copy of (possibly minified or otherwise modified) parts of their distribution. The example files may be used as starting points without limitation except the licences on the external content.
