Hello! As per title I would like to create UI library for the web based on Blender UI. Though I believe there might be legal issues with that, since Blender is developed under GPL and I am considering to make this library MIT licensed. So I have the following questions:

  1. Do I violate GPL in case I create MIT licensed web UI library that provide the same look and feel as Blender UI elements?

  2. If the answer on previous question is “yes”, maybe there is an option to develop such library under GPL license?

  3. If the answer on previous question is “no”, maybe there is an option do develop such library as part of Blender ecosystem?
