Documentation > Installation and Administration > License - GPL or CEL?
CorneliOS can either be used under the GPL license or under the CEL license. The features of both versions are absolutely identical. The GPL version is not limited in any form.
GPL - GNU Public License- The GPL version is FREE.
- You may download and use it without limitations.
- You may modify and distribute it as long as your work is published under the GPL too.
- As a developer, you'll have to release your own CorneliOS/CIOS applications under the GPL too.
- This means that you will have to offer free versions of your application.
- This also means that you'll have to make all of your source code available to the public.
CEL - CorneliOS Enterprise License- The CEL version is not free, but license costs are very low.
- As a developer, you may release your CorneliOS/CIOS applications under your own license.
- This means that you can decide to only offer paid versions of your own software.
- This also means that you keep your source code closed, you don't have to make your source code available to the public.
