  • For clarification question 2, it depends on the license. If the code is coming from GPL or similar copyleft licenses, you can't change the license to do what you want. For your linked questions, the answer for #2 seems quite clear. As @bdb484 suggested, talk to your lawyer. Commented Dec 19, 2024 at 18:47

    The library seems to be licensed under MIT license, as stated in the very first sentence here. Only the testing parts, which are likely not delivered with your code, might be under other licenses. It is not dual-licensed. Therefore, only the requirements/limitations of the MIT license are relevant for you. You might want to revise your question. Commented Dec 20, 2024 at 8:51
