[CKEditor 5] Do I need a licence from CKEditor to use this component?

Hi,

I only want to use the free version of CKEditor 5.

I have some questions that need your help to answer.

1. Do I need a licence from CKEditor to use this component?

2. If I get a free licence from CKEditor, how can I apply it to this component?

3. I have a Closed-Source Project so I think I don't need to comply with the GPL 2+, is that right?

Thanks!

The CKEditor 5 component is generally available for free in the Forge. However, CKEditor 5 itself has its own licensing terms. The specific licensing terms for CKEditor 5 should be checked on the CKEditor website or their official GitHub repository. 

CKEditor 5 is typically released under the GPL 2+ (GNU General Public License Version 2 or later). The GPL is a copyleft license, and it imposes certain obligations on developers. If you are using CKEditor 5 under the GPL 2+ license, your project needs to comply with the terms of this license. 


Cheers!!
