Author here. tldraw is not an open source project. It used to be but we switched to a commercial license for our v2 in 2023. The old v1 is still available under MIT; and I try to put as much as we can under MIT license where it makes sense, but the core needs to be licensed in a way that allows us to sell it. We've always been majority source available and still accept community contributions, even though the default is to close external PRs. I care about OSS. I wish the economics of it made sense for us.
