+The upstream [MeshCore](https://github.com/meshcore-dev/MeshCore) library is released under the **MIT License** (Copyright © 2025 Scott Powell / rippleradios.com). Meck-specific code (UI screens, display helpers, device integration) is also provided under the MIT License.

+However, this firmware links against libraries with different license terms. Because two dependencies use the **GPL-3.0** copyleft license, the combined firmware binary is effectively subject to GPL-3.0 obligations when distributed. Please review the individual licenses below if you intend to redistribute or modify this firmware.
