License

paranoid-passwd is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only (GPL-3.0-only).

This is an intentional product decision:

  • the password manager remains open source under a reciprocal license

  • downstream redistributors receive the same source-available security posture as users

  • Slint can be used under Slint’s GPLv3 open-source licensing path

  • the licensing model does not require reintroducing a browser, webview, JavaScript, or Node runtime into the trusted product surface

The canonical license text is included in the repository LICENSE file.

For Slint work, use the GPLv3 option unless a future release decision explicitly chooses Slint’s separate royalty-free or commercial licensing path. Slint WASM and mobile targets are allowed only as explicit Rust/Slint surfaces with separate threat models and release gates.
