ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

WTFPL

Okay kiddo, let me explain the WTFPL to you in the simplest way possible.

So imagine you drew a really cool picture, and someone else copied it without asking you. That wouldn't be fair, right?

The WTFPL is a kind of license that people can put on their creative work, like pictures or software programs. This license basically says that anyone can use or copy the work, anytime and anywhere they want, without asking permission or paying money.

It's kind of like sharing your toys with your friends - you don't need to ask your parents if it's okay every time, and you don't have to charge your friends to play with them.

The words "WTF" in the name of the license basically mean "What The F***," which is kind of like saying, "I don't care what you do with it, just don't be a jerk about it."

So that's the WTFPL - it's a way for people to share their creative work freely and without any fuss. Pretty cool, huh?
