## Third-Party Acknowledgments

malt uses or interacts with the following projects:

### SQLite (vendored)
- License: Public Domain
- https://sqlite.org/copyright.html
- The SQLite amalgamation (sqlite3.c, sqlite3.h) is compiled into the malt
  binary. SQLite is in the public domain and has no license restrictions.

### Zig Standard Library
- License: MIT
- https://github.com/ziglang/zig/blob/master/LICENSE
- Portions of the Zig standard library are statically linked into the binary.

### Homebrew
- License: BSD-2-Clause
- https://github.com/Homebrew/brew/blob/master/LICENSE.txt
- malt is a client for Homebrew's package infrastructure. It queries the
  public Homebrew Formulae API (formulae.brew.sh) and downloads pre-built
  bottles from the GitHub Container Registry (ghcr.io). No Homebrew source
  code is included in malt.

### Homebrew-core
- License: BSD-2-Clause
- https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/LICENSE.txt
- Formula metadata is consumed via the public API. Formula source files
  (`.rb`) may be fetched at runtime from the public GitHub repository when
  a local tap clone is not available, for the sole purpose of extracting
  and executing the user-facing `post_install` block on behalf of the user.
  No formula definitions are bundled in the malt binary or distributed
  with it.
