Marketing an idea based on MagicMirror?
-
Hi
I am a devops engineer, and I wondered if I could use the MagicMirror software (which is thank god open source!) to market an idea? I guess the answer is yes, but I just wondered …
If you have experience with MagicMirror and modules, write me an email to avernopolis@gmail.com or just respond to this topic! The idea has a well defined USP (Unique Selling Point) and should be money involved if we market it correctly.

MagicMirror is licensed under the MIT. And most of the more than 1000 modules are also available under a free licence. So as long as you comply with the licence conditions, the answer is yes.
Of course it would be cool if you would give something back to the community, be it through donations, code improvements, documentation improvements, helping others in the forum or something else. It would be interesting to know if Waveshare returns anything 🤔

@KristjanESPERANTO Thanks for replying, got it :)
I’d make a donation in return for sure, even more after the product is marketed …

@toxeek Just to let you know, I am not part of the core MagicMirror team and my answer is based on my personal interpretation of the situation.
I wish you every success! 🚀 I would find it interesting if you could tell us about your project later.
