Licences
What this website is built on, named and versioned. Everything below is served from our own origin; none of it is fetched from a third party while you read this page.
| Component | Version | Licence | What it does here |
|---|---|---|---|
| GSAP | 3.15.0 | Standard "No Charge" licence | Scroll engine — ScrollTrigger and Flip. Not an OSI licence; permitted for a site like this one, not for resale as a product. |
| Lenis | 1.3.26 | MIT | Smooth scrolling. Replaced GSAP ScrollSmoother, which transformed a wrapper and broke every fixed element on the page. |
| Poppins | 4.003 | SIL OFL 1.1 | The front page's typeface, self-hosted in four latin cuts (400/500/600/700) with OFL.txt beside them. Never linked from a font CDN — LG Muenchen I, 3 O 17493/20. The OFL permits it to ship inside a site a client owns, which a retail webfont licence would not have done for free. |
| Fraunces | 1.000 | SIL OFL 1.1 | The lettering and titles of the chameleon room, with its soft axis set to 100. Self-hosted as one latin subset with Fraunces-OFL.txt beside it; no Reserved Font Name. |
| Geist | 1.400 | SIL OFL 1.1 | The labels and text of the chameleon room. Self-hosted as one latin subset with Geist-OFL.txt beside it. |
| React | 18 | MIT | Runs the interactive parts of the front page — the opener, the tool bar, the galleries and the sign-up. Loaded last and deferred; the page is complete and readable before it arrives. |
| React Bits | — | MIT + Commons Clause | ScrollExpand, PixelSwap, AnimatedContent, FadeContent, LogoLoop and Stepper, modified to run without Tailwind and without a second animation library. The Commons Clause permits use inside a website and forbids selling or redistributing the components themselves — we do the first and never the second. |
| Codrops (Tympanus) demos | ScrollBasedLayoutAnimations | MIT | The two scroll-scrubbed layout mechanics on this page — the sliced strip and the mosaic — were rebuilt from these demos. The code licence is MIT; their demo photographs are not covered by it and none of them is used here. Every photograph on this page is ours, under the Pexels licence. |
| Pexels photography | — | Pexels licence | Every photograph on this site. Free for commercial use, attribution not required — we credit anyway. |
| sharp | 0.35.4 | Apache-2.0 | Build-time image processing. It never runs in your browser. |
What we do not resell
Some of what we build on is licensed for use but not for resale as a product — GSAP's no-charge licence and the Commons Clause attached to parts of our internal component library both work that way. A licensed component inside a website we deliver to a client is use. A bundle of those components offered as a product is not, and we do not offer one.
Your site
The website we build for you is yours: the copy, the images you supply, the domain and the delivered files. The underlying tooling stays licensed as listed above.
