I'm new dev on android, i'v done some work, but I want have more friendly design. I found this group (site/github...) and I say to myself : WHHHOOOOOOOO it's look perfect !
But I need to do app for clients, I need to understand the licence part before I code with.

I read the apache licence, but all the open source stuff include ?

Do I have obligation to release source of my app if I use this script ?

I prefer be honest, I prefere free software, but this time, It's proprietary app in front of a new business, so close source, but I want to do all in the book, and not to be dishonest with open source and free software community and in the worst case, use bootstrap just for fun and code eveything myself for business :D

Thanks !

Nicolas

I read and try to figure out.

So I think all project under Apache2, I need to say it on LICENCE file or NOTICE file.

I have to join a file when user install the app ? (in the directory )

And of course mention of using this project on the website of the app, in page like ABOUT or LEGALS ?

Something like that ?
