MIT VS Apache 2.0 License

MIT license is a more permissive license than Apache 2.0. Basically, you can do whatever you want with MIT-licensed software, provided you add a copy of the original MIT license and copyright notice to it. Apache is stricter because it requires you to list all the modifications you make to the original software.

Key differences

• The Apache 2.0 license text is much more thorough and contains more legal terminology than the MIT license.

• The MIT license aims to be the most simple and straightforward open source license for developers to distribute their software under.

• the Apache license requires developers to disclose any major changes they make to the original source code.
