Question: How can I use this for my app?

Closed this issue · 11 comments

I am relatively new in programming. I never worked with the work of others, that have been licensed. But since you have a lot of quotes, i consider to use them in my app.

There is just one question: As I said, i never worked with licensed works. This was because I am unsure how to give copyright. Now I really want to use it, so I wanted to ask if you might help me a bit.

Hi @Lijukay how did you discover this repo? 🔍
The quotes are public domain. There is no copyright on what someone else has said. 💬
What programming language are using for your App? 👩‍💻

Hey @nelsonic,

I was searching for some repositories that may have a kind of database for quotes, that I can add.

Also I didn't know that. I thought that they are copyrighted too.

For my App I am using Java.

Thank you for your help!

Ok. using Java you will want to import the quotes.json file directly and use it however you see fit.

So I just download the JSON file and put it into my apps raw folder and parse it?

Yes, that will be the easiest/fastest approach. 👌
