Copyright Annotations

Sometimes the question comes up, what copyright notice to use when creating a compatibility module?

Similar code

When a file is very similar to one found in one of the Hyvä core, retain the Hyvä copyright notice:

/**
 * Hyvä Themes - https://hyva.io
 * Copyright © Hyvä Themes 2020-present. All rights reserved.
 * See https://hyva.io/license
 */

Unique code

If the file content is not a copy, but rather created from scratch and contains mostly unique code, feel free to use either the Hyvä copyright notice, or your own one.

In that case please add a line that allows the code to be used with Hyvä installations.

Example:

/**
 * Example Company - https://example.io
 * Copyright © Example Company 2020-present. All rights reserved.
 * This code may be used in conjunction with the module example-company/original-module 
 * See https://example.io/compat-module-license
 */

Feel free to modify the above example as appropriate.
