[edit] Crap, false alarm, the paid license is still the same garbled, unclear, non-professional nonsense that all of us complained about a year ago and that makes your pro versions completely unusable by real businesses, it's only the free versions that have a real license attached to them[/edit]
On behalf of myself and all the other commenters who asked for a real license last year when your material UI kit hit HN[0], I'd like to say a big THANK YOU for ditching your old home-written license and going with something real so we can actually use this release. Can't wait to see what you'll build next!

- yodon 9y ago[edit]False alarm, the pro Material kit still uses the same terrible non-professionally written "creative tim" license HN commenters complained about a year ago (sample link in parent comment)[/edit] W00t! It looks like you also re-released the material kit under MIT, and have a ton of other stuff available. You might consider adding a link to your list of demos (or a more prominent link or list) on the product demo pages. If we hadn't messaged here on HN previously, I'm unlikely to have gone looking for other stuff and found all your other demos[0] [0] http://demos.creative-tim.com/ http://demos.creative-tim.com/
- jswny 9y agoWhy would the paid licence be the one to be the unprofessional, custom made (cringe) licence? I would think that's the one that needs a clear, established licence the most. I don't like it.
- yodon 9y agoI don't understand it either, and HN's response is equally puzzling. When I initially reported yay there's a decent license I got showered with upvotes. Now that I've added an edit to say actually no the license is still terrible I'm getting showered with downvotes. It's not my fault the license is terrible and we've already had tons of people chime in previously to complain about the terrible "license" for these great products.
- jswny 9y agoAh, the classic "downvote the messenger" response. If people don't like the licence, they should upvote you for visibility of the problem, or make a comment themselves.
- sixothree 9y agoI once saw someone comment on Reddit how he upvotes people he gets into arguments with so more people can see just how right he is.
- owlninja 9y agoYour edits being on top is a little confusing, but still.. HN is a fickle bunch.
- yodon 9y agoAgreed, normally I'd put the edit at the bottom but I didn't want people to see my enthusiasm and jump out of the comment before getting to the no wait it's not that at all correction.
