=================== Open Source License

Emscripten is made available under two permissive open source licenses: the MIT license and the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License.

There is little, if any, practical difference between the licenses. They are both offered because the:

• MIT license is well known and understood.
• University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License allows Emscripten's code to be integrated upstream into LLVM, should the opportunity arise.

The license for Emscripten |release| is reproduced below. The current full license <https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/blob/main/LICENSE>_ can be found on GitHub (and is also present in the root of the SDK).
