GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

LGPL-3.0 is a “library” variant of GPL-3.0. If you modify the LGPL-3.0 library itself, your modifications must be released under LGPL-3.0. If you just use the library — link to it, call its APIs — your own code can stay under any license, even proprietary.

LGPL-3.0 is a good fit for reusable libraries where you want modifications to the library itself to stay open, but you are fine with the library being called from closed-source code.
