License
PrequelUI blocks are free and open source under the MIT licence. Use them, change them, ship them.

In plain language
The free blocks are published under the MIT licence, one of the most permissive open-source licences there is. In plain terms, you can:
- use the blocks in any project, personal or commercial;
- copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute and sell them;
- keep the code in your own project, without paying anything or asking permission.
The only things the licence asks of you are:
- keep the copyright notice and the licence text when you share the code itself, and
- accept that the software is provided “as is”, without any warranty.
When you install a block with npx shadcn@latest add https://prequelui.terravidhal.me/r/<name>.json, the code is copied into your project and you own it from that moment.
What it covers
The MIT licence applies to the free blocks on this site — the code you install into your own project. It does not apply to the PrequelUI website itself, its branding, or the PrequelUI name, which are not part of the open-source release.
PrequelUI Pro
PrequelUI Pro is a separate product with complete dashboards. It has its own licence, its own site and its own terms, which will be announced when Pro launches. The free blocks stay MIT licensed regardless of what Pro does.
