What you have to do

Attribution

If you only use it at build time, the answer changes.

MIT appears as a dev dependency, so it is not part of the artifact you ship. Distribution-triggered obligations do not arise. Tools that emit code into your output, such as code generators, are a separate case worth checking individually.

About MIT

The most widely used permissive license. It grants nearly unrestricted use in exchange for keeping the copyright notice and license text with the software. There is no source-disclosure requirement and no patent clause.

How this was determined

The license was read from the npm registry, then evaluated against each shipping model. Only the declared license is considered; code copied into a project's own source files is not detected by this method.

LicenseGuard reports information derived from published license texts and dependency manifests. It is not legal advice and using it does not create an attorney-client relationship. Results reflect license metadata as declared; they do not identify every obligation or violation. Consult qualified counsel for decisions that matter.
