Third-party components

The Analyst application software builds onto a lot of open source libraries, frameworks and programs. They can be used freely and autonomously anytime, even out of the scope of Analyst license. However, they are licensed under their own licenses and cannot be considered as “sold” even if they are distributed together with commercial parts of Analyst. The list of third-party software can vary depending on the version of Analyst.
