Cloud Services — Separate Terms

If Lifo offers cloud-hosted services in the future (hosted sandboxes, managed APIs, enterprise features), those services will be governed by separate Terms of Service and commercial agreements.

Key distinction

  • The open-source runtime is always MIT. No cloud service terms will ever restrict your right to use, modify, or redistribute the open-source code.
  • Cloud services are separate products. They may have usage-based pricing, SLAs, and additional terms. These terms apply only to the cloud services, not to the open-source runtime.
  • You are never required to use cloud services. The open-source runtime is fully functional on its own. Cloud services are optional add-ons for teams that want managed infrastructure.

Third-Party Licenses

Lifo depends on open-source packages, each with their own licenses. A full list of dependencies and their licenses is available in the GitHub repository.
