Is this the code underpinning https://www.calligrapher.ai ?

Ran across https://www.calligrapher.ai on HN and someone mentioned that this repo appeared to be the source for that (or at least, the tech used). If so, that might be cool to call out in the readme.

There's technically no license in this repo, so depending on where you live this code is all rights reserved despite what's at the bottom of the readme, so if that's just someone who used your code without informing you, I guess you might now know >_>

In legal terms and well known for software, no license means no rights. The way it stands nobody can legally use this for anything and for anybody that is using it the terms you are expected to abide by may change at any time. Once a license has been declared it can't be changed retro-actively.

Okay. Then what's the point in posting code online ? For someone to hire you?
Judging from the fact that the creator doesn't answer to questions since long - they don't bother. Simple as that. If one wanted to place any sort of restrictions they would initially do it as we all do.

This has come up before, see #16 and #42. This issue may not be a duplicate if it is just asking about the related website, but the license question is a duplicate. I suggest any further issue comments be left there.

Any competent lawyer can point at https://github.com/sjvasquez/handwriting-synthesis#contribute as a demonstration of author intent, and the the phrasing of "packaging" can be understood to mean "for whatever purpose" and probably win the case because "if the author cared about rights, they would have added a license stating as much".

(I am, of course, not a lawyer, but I have lived in different countries where the absence of a license does not automatically mean all rights are reserved)

Having said that, this issue was not about getting a license file added (there was no suggestion or request for one), it was about whether this project and the website mentioned are the same thing.
