  • I am not the creator of this editor, I just want to put it on the web as as service. Then I'd like to use this service form my propietary software. Javascript is downloaded to the client's browser but it is not linked in any way with my software (I use an iframe to load it). What obligations do I have in this case? So to clarify: I put this editor as part of my OSS project as a service and then I use this project as service from my propietary software. There are 3 projects involved.

  • When you say use the service from my proprietary software do you mean use the service as part of an offering alongside my proprietary software? Tell us more about how the end-user interacts with all of this, when your software decides to show the end-user the editor, and what (if anything) it does with edited files. Forget the iframe, by the way, that makes no difference at all to the coupling involved. Commented Aug 25, 2020 at 14:35
  • Fair enough, I added a workflow description to my question. Commented Aug 25, 2020 at 20:48
  • did I clear things up regarding the user interaction? Commented Aug 26, 2020 at 22:21
  • Sort of. The remote server that serves that JS for the editor, is this server under your control? Or do you just redirect the user's browser to it? Commented Aug 27, 2020 at 6:25
