Or, you know, if you’re okay with the GPL. :)

But agreed, you need to be aware of the license obligations of any code you use.

What I wanted to point out is that just because software X is licensed under MIT or BSD or Apache 2.0, doesn't mean that all of its dependencies are, and therefore, that it's _only_ licensed under those licenses. I have observed several times in the wild people not understanding or appreciating the meaning of this crucial difference. That's a recipe for much regret later on when you think you can keep your trade secrets, and you legally can't.
