> You get to deploy your server logic directly into the database > You may make use of the Licensed Work provided your application or service uses the Licensed Work with no more than one SpacetimeDB instance in production and provided that you do not use the Licensed Work for a Database Service. Therefore, as an OSS product, SpacetimeDB does not scale.

SpacetimeDB is not Open Source Software. It is "source-available," but is a commercial product.

  Interesting, it seems that it's Source Available but converts to Open Source (AGPL) in 2031. First time I've seen licensing like that. https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDB/blob/master/LICENSE.txt https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDB/blob/master/LIC...

    ml5.js has a similar license: https://github.com/ml5js/ml5-library?tab=License-1-ov-file https://github.com/ml5js/ml5-library?tab=License-1-ov-file Their license is basically "use freely unless our community decides you violated the code of conduct, for three years"

    The date keeps changing on each release so every version bump becomes AGPL five years from the date its published. Its an interesting model, but necessary to be aware of the nuance in case you ever want to consume it.

  But given that it's vibe coded, it's probably in the public domain. Check with your lawyers :)
