Ask HN: AGPL on a Code Generator App

1 pointsby nesuabout 10 years ago
I am building a commercial SaaS app that is a code generator. I noticed that one of the libraries needed on the generated code has an AGPL license.<p>Technically, the AGPL code is not &#x27;run&#x27; on the server, but merely &#x27;served&#x27; along with the rest of the generated code. However, somehow, it is possible to consider the code to be a &#x27;part&#x27; of the entire software, since removing the AGPL code on the generator will make the generated code incomplete. The question is, am I allowed to use this library on the code generator?
