I didn’t know how to identify the licenses of libraries published on Github and other platforms, so I’m noting down helpful reference links.

This covers the differences and identification methods for these major licenses:

・BSD License ・MIT License(X11 License、X License) ・GNU General Public License(GNU GPL, GPL, GNU一般公衆利用許諾書) ・GNU Lesser General Public License(GNU LGPL, LGPL) ・Creative Commons(CC, クリエイティブ・コモンズ)

That’s all from the Gemba.
