Is Vivaldi Open Source?
https://help.vivaldi.com/article/is-vivaldi-open-source/ https://help.vivaldi.com/article/is-vivaldi-open-source/
Short answer: no.
Long answer: no, but...
Vivaldi is not made available under one
unified open source license. It does contain
the Chromium source code with changes made
to allow the HTML/CSS/JS based UI to run.
All changes to the Chromium source code
are made available under a BSD license and can
be read by anyone on vivaldi.com/source/.
Details in this regard are explained in
the the README and LICENSE files within the package.
In addition, our UI code is written in plain,
accessible code for those who read HTML, CSS and JS.
This means that for all practical purposes
the Vivaldi source code is available for audit.
Vivaldi also contains third party code. Licenses
for these parts can be found in the source
package and in the installed browser by
navigating to vivaldi://credits
