[License] Use conda-forge for commercial development

I use conda-forge as conda when developing at my company.
There are no licensing issues with conda-forge even when used for commercial development, right?

Hey @SOIM! :slightly_smiling_face: Yes, you’re right. If you use the conda-forge channel for your packages, you won’t face licensing issues with conda-forge or Anaconda. However, it’s up to you to ensure that you comply with the individual licenses of the projects you download from conda-forge.

Hope this helps!

Yes, but make sure to avoid downloading conda itself from anaconda.com. Instead use the miniforge distribution.

It is also important to make sure that your default channel is configured to be conda-forge, so it is best to check even if you used the miniforge installer.
