How to choose an open source license for a RAD framework on GitHub

IONDV. Framework is an open source framework for node.js for creating high-level web applications based on metadata, which does not require serious programming skills.

The basis of the application functionality is the data registry - the Register module. This is a key module designed specifically for working with data based on metadata structures - including project management, programs, events, etc. Also, the project uses a portal module to display arbitrary data templates - it implements the front of the archive files registry.

For the DBMS, MongoDb is used - it stores the application settings, metadata, and the data itself.
