Can I bundle my JavaScript code with an MIT licensed code and keep my code unaffected from the MIT license?

Question

Can I bundle my proprietary JavaScript code with MIT licensed libraries (e.g. JQuery, AngularJS) into the same file, distribute it via HTTP but disallow my users to use my own code as an MIT licensed code?

This way I could minimize the number of browser requests, and reduce errors due to network errors. I don't want to let my users copy, modify and reuse my own code outside of my website.

Was it helpful?

Solution

Yes. Just specify the terms of your license with the accompanying code.

The MIT license doesn't have any provisions in it that forces your code to be MIT licensed, nor does it prevent you from relicensing the MIT-licensed code in any way you see fit.
