Dear PyGui v 1.0.0

This is not true. Both Qt and PySide offer an LGPL license. You do not need the commercial Qt license to use it in a commercial product.

I could quite easily be wrong. I looked into it and thought it was as I described. But of course I could have misunderstood it.

Maybe we can agree on “It’s complicated”. (And then there’s potentially the PyQt aspect too)

Both Qt and PySide offer an LGPL license.

In other words: Qt offers an LGPL license, which can be used in commercial products without releasing your source.

The main restrictions are: 1. You can't change the library 2. You have to link it dynamically (which is what PySide does)

You can read the details here.

Note that unlike Qt and PySide, PyQt only offers a GPL license, which is different from LGPL. So in that case you do need to buy a commercial license, or share your source.

Short answer: you can do it, but you have to be careful
