Bootstrap Themes:

The Bootstrap framework is free and MIT-licensed. Premium themes from the official marketplace have separate commercial licenses.

Each premium theme license typically covers one end product. Multiple projects may require separate purchases.

GitHub:

License depends on each individual repository. No license file means all rights reserved by default - you cannot legally use, modify, or distribute the code.

GitHub Copilot suggestions may include code from repositories with various licenses. Review suggestions carefully for license compliance.
