Open Source Information

This project is being prepared to operate like a maintainable engineering repository instead of a one-off demo drop.

Open Source Intent

• prefer widely adopted, verified, and actively maintained modules, libraries, and tooling where possible
• document external dependencies and why they are used
• avoid unnecessary proprietary coupling in reusable platform areas
• keep deployment logic auditable and understandable

Dependency Principles

• use official vendor modules when they are mature and appropriate
• prefer verified PowerShell modules when available
• prefer stable provider ecosystems for infrastructure tools
• document version pinning decisions when reproducibility matters
• do not add dependencies without a clear operational benefit

Future License And Compliance Work

The project still needs explicit decisions on:

• repository license
• contribution model for external collaborators
• dependency review process
• security scanning and supply chain review expectations

Until those are finalized, treat this section as the repository's open source direction rather than a completed legal policy.
