List of proprietary source-available software
open-in-new
<p> This is a list of proprietary source-available software, which has available <a href="/facts/Source_code/o9J6Jv23">source code</a>, but is not classified as <a href="/facts/Free_software/IaoVtJXn">free software</a> or <a href="/facts/Open-source_software/HzTaB8E9">open-source software</a>. In some cases, this type of software is originally sold and released without the <a href="/facts/Source_code/o9J6Jv23">source code</a>, and the source code becomes available later. Sometimes, the source code is released under a liberal <a href="/facts/Software_license/7enfIqhL">software license</a> at its <a href="/facts/End-of-life_(product)/LaKyw5RU">end of life</a>.
