GPL License violation

Currently you use wowjs it's under the GPL. I maintain a fork from when the library was MIT (wow.js) see https://wowjs.uk

This version is completely UMD compatible and doesn't need any hacks.

You could also use AOS instead

Thanks for the tip, but I don't think this repo uses wow.js. Were you looking at the current website at http://micromasters.mit.edu/ ? It looks like it does use wow.js.

https://github.com/mitodl/micromasters/blob/master/package.json#L84 I'm looking at master

[pdpinch]

Ah, github search... how useless can you be?

[pdpinch]

No, not at all. My comment was about the uselessness of github's search tool.

Again, thanks for the tip. We'll take a look into switching the library.

[graingert]

Ah, I misunderstood, deleted.

@pdpinch AFAIK wow.js just came with the home page and program page code from the designer. I'm not sure we actually use it at all, and we'll be getting rid of it soon in any case with the new redesign

[graingert]

probably worth just nixing the animations completely from the homepage until the redesign, rather than replacing it?

[noisecapella]

I think so. Thanks for bringing this to our attention!

@noisecapella you guys probably want to use something like https://github.com/davglass/license-checker to check for MIT incompatible licenses
