Licensing

The engine: a fork of Kiri

eDock's engine (engine/) is a fork of Kiri, Copyright Canestack Labs and the Kiri contributors, licensed under the Apache License 2.0. It was forked from Kiri's commit baa2d41 and modified by the eDock authors.

  • engine/LICENSE is the Apache License 2.0, unchanged.
  • engine/NOTICE is Kiri's notice file. Its first line is the attribution to Kiri, and the rest is Kiri's own, unchanged: the third-party notices for the Rust crates.
  • engine/UPSTREAM.md lists what eDock changed. The main changes:
    • renamed Kiri to eDock;
    • removed Kiri's own window, its share service, its self-updater and its crash uploads, so eDock contacts none of Kiri's services;
    • dropped Windows support.

Apache-2.0 asks that redistributions keep the licence and the NOTICE, and say that files were changed. eDock ships both in the app, at eDock.app/Contents/Resources/engine/.

The guest kernel: GPL-2.0

The Linux kernel that runs in eDock's VM is a separate work under the GNU General Public License, version 2. eDock builds it from the upstream kernel source with the configuration and patches in engine/guest/kernel/. engine/guest/kernel/SOURCE_OFFER.md (in the app as Contents/Resources/engine/KERNEL_SOURCE_OFFER.md) says where to get the exact source.

eDock's own code: MIT

eDock's own code is under the MIT License (LICENSE at the repository's root): the desktop app (desktop/), the scripts (scripts/) and this documentation (docs/). The app is built on the Elyra Framework, which is MIT too.

It also uses:

Component Licence
bollard, the Docker API client Apache-2.0
xterm.js, the terminal MIT
Svelte MIT

What runs in containers

The images you run (nginx, k3s, …) carry their own licences. eDock doesn't ship them.
