## Open Source

Both TNT Basic and the Hieroglyph IDE are open source. You can download the source code from https://github.com/mctully/tntbasic.

We are always looking for people to contribute to TNT Basic's development, whether through programming, documentation, examples or graphics - all help is welcome. Take a look at the website above, or look at the community forums at http://www.tntbasic.com/ to see how you could help.

## License

In 2012, TNT Basic was relicensed under the BSD license. Previous to that, it was licensed under a MPL/GPL/LGPL triple license. The triple license version is still available on sourceforge.net
