License: terms of use of Jmol

Jmol is free software. You can download it, use it, redistribute it, etc. without paying anything.

Jmol is open-source. This means you can obtain the source code and even change it, under the terms of the license, described below.

Jmol is offered under the LGPL License (GNU Lesser General Public License).

JSmol is a part of the Jmol product, hence subject to the same terms.

Licenses when using JmolApplet in webpages

JSmol Library (including JSmol.min.js and other files)

This is the new Javascript library that allows easy insertion of Jmol Objects in a webpage. As part of Jmol and JSmol, it is covered by the LGPL.

Jmol.js Library

This is the classical Javascript library that allows easy insertion of JmolApplets in a webpage. As part of Jmol, it is covered by the LGPL.

JmolApi.js, JmolApplet.js, JmolControls.js, JmolCore.js Libraries

These new libraries, also meant for insertion of JmolApplets into webpages, are equally covered by LGPL.

JmolCD.js

Support for integration of the Jmol ChemDoodle extension (license) has been abandoned, since that functionality is covered by JSmol.
