AGPL (Affero General Public License)

The Affero General Public License (AGPL) is a type of open-source software license that ensures users have the freedom to use, modify, and share software. What sets the AGPL apart is its requirement that if someone uses the software over a network (like a web application), they must also share their modified version of the code with users. This promotes transparency and collaboration, ensuring that improvements benefit everyone. Essentially, the AGPL aims to keep software free and open, even when it’s used in online services.
