Poem

In the burrow of docs, I thump with delight,
A LICENSE unfurls, crisp, clear, and bright.
README now hums with clauses and care—
Rights neatly stacked like carrots we share.
MIT moon above, disclaimers below,
Hippity-hop, legal seeds we sow. 🥕✨

Matches the canonical MIT template end to end. Nicely done.

205-258: Expanded license guidance is clear and consistent.

Appreciate the added compliance note and the breakdown for contributors, users, and commercial adopters—maps perfectly to the MIT terms.
