License
This is the agreement shown by the installer. Quire is free of charge; it is not open source.
Quire End User License Agreement
Copyright (c) 2026 Abderrahim Bouzidi. All rights reserved.
Quire ("the Software") is free of charge, but it is not free software: it is
licensed, not sold, and this agreement sets out what you may and may not do
with it. By installing or using the Software you accept these terms.
1. What you may do
You may install and use the Software on any number of computers that you
own or control, for personal or professional purposes, at no cost.
You may make copies of the installer for backup purposes.
2. What you may not do
You may not sell, rent, lease, sublicense or otherwise charge for the
Software, or bundle it with a product or service that is sold, without
written permission from the author.
You may not modify, adapt, translate, decompile, disassemble or reverse
engineer the Software, or create derivative works from it, except to the
extent that applicable law expressly permits it.
You may not remove or alter the copyright notice, the author's name or the
"About Quire" information.
You may not redistribute modified versions, or present the Software as
your own work.
3. Redistribution of the unmodified installer
You may share the official, unmodified installer, or a link to the
official download page, provided that you do not charge for it and do not
claim any rights over it. Linking to the official download page is
preferred, so that people always receive the latest version.
4. Updates
The Software may check for and download updates from the author's release
channel. Updates are covered by this agreement unless they come with a
different license.
5. Your files and your data
The Software does not modify the books you open. Reading positions,
highlights and library information are stored locally on your computer.
The Software sends no usage data to the author. Optional online features
(looking up book details by ISBN or title, checking for updates) contact
third-party services only as described in the About dialog.
6. Third-party components
The Software includes open-source components that remain under their own
licenses, notably pdf.js (Apache License 2.0), foliate-js (MIT License)
and Tauri (MIT / Apache License 2.0). Their notices are included with the
Software and are not affected by this agreement.
7. No warranty
THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. IN NO EVENT SHALL
THE AUTHOR BE LIABLE FOR ANY CLAIM, DAMAGES OR OTHER LIABILITY ARISING
FROM THE USE OF THE SOFTWARE.
8. Termination
This license ends automatically if you break any of its terms. On
termination you must stop using the Software and delete your copies.
