- ogoffart 3y agoSlint developer here. Slint is under multiple licenses. The GPLv3 and also the Slint Royalty-free license. For desktop applications, The Royalty free license is actually less restrictive than the LGPL since you can do static linking and don't need to share the modifications. For embedded products, the LGPLv3 can often not be an option anyway, and we hope that users can find our pricing model better the one of Qt.
- joezydeco 3y agoCan you share a ballpark estimate of what embedded runtime licenses cost? I really don't want to engage your marketing department to find out.
- madnirua 3y agoFor non-commercial and personal projects, the runtime licenses are free. For commercial projects, the online form https://slint.dev/get-price https://slint.dev/get-price (from https://slint.dev/pricing https://slint.dev/pricing page) automatically sends an email with pricing info (no marketing person is involved :) ). Note: you need to enter your business email in the form.
