A License represents a software license that can be resolved with a license key.
LicenseKit licenses (see doc:Understanding-Licenses) can specify and validate expiration date, platform, bundle ID, tier, environment, features, and much, much more.
LicenseKit uses services (see doc:Understanding-License-Services) to compile licenses into the product binary, read licenses from files, fetch licenses from remote APIs, integrate with external services like Gumroad, etc.
LicenseKit also lets you cache validation results to handle temporary connectivity loss, and use service proxying to use multiple services to validate license keys.
LicenseKit can be installed with the Swift Package Manager:
https://github.com/Kankoda/LicenseKit.git
LicenseKit only has to be added to the main app target. If you are using LicenseKit with a library, make sure to set up your Swift package so that your users get both your library and LicenseKit when fetching your package.

- ✅ License Validation - LicenseKit can validate licenses in many ways.
