Missing LICENSE file (README references MIT but no file exists) #7

Description

@m4nt0de4

Issue

The README has both a badge and footer referencing an MIT license:

  • Badge: [![License](https://img.shields.io/badge/license-MIT-green.svg)](LICENSE)
  • Footer: "MIT License - See LICENSE file"

However, no LICENSE file exists in the repository. Without an explicit license file, the code is technically "all rights reserved" under copyright law, despite the MIT badge suggesting otherwise.

Impact

  • Contributors and users have no clear legal standing to use or modify the code
  • The badge link returns a 404

Suggested Fix

Add a standard MIT LICENSE file to the repository root, or update the README to reflect the intended license.
