In v10.0.0, Directus is adopting BSL 1.1 — with additional usage grants added in to keep the platform open and available. For nearly all of our community, today’s announcement won’t change a thing, but licenses can be intimidating, so let’s highlight the key points below:
- All Directus source code will still be open and available on GitHub
- Non-production use of Directus is still completely free for everyone
- Production use of Directus is still completely free for nearly all users
- Everyone can still use the entire Directus platform for free… unless you (your legal entity) exceed $5,000,000 USD in “total finances” per year
- Code released under this new license converts to GPLv3 (OSS) after 3 years
Massive thanks to everybody who chimed in on the discussion in #17977 and on Discord ❤️
