Third-party notices

openGym — Copyright (C) 2026 Duarte Santos. openGym's own code is licensed under the GNU AGPL v3.0 (see LICENSE).

App store exception

As an additional permission under section 7 of the AGPL v3.0, the copyright holder permits distribution of the openGym mobile application through app store platforms (such as the Apple App Store and Google Play) whose terms of service would otherwise be incompatible with the AGPL, provided the corresponding source code remains available under the AGPL at the project repository. This permission applies to the distribution channel only and does not otherwise limit the license.

Body diagram geometry

The muscle outlines the body maps are drawn from (frontend/src/lib/body-paths.js) are derived from MuscleMap by Melih Colpan, used under the MIT License and reproduced below. MuscleMap ships its path data as Swift source rather than .svg files; the paths were converted to a JSON module, its sub-group shapes were dropped, and nothing else about the artwork was changed.

Exercise data & media

openGym obtains both through hasaneyldrm/exercises-dataset, which licenses them differently. Neither is covered by openGym's AGPL license.

That dataset is itself a redistribution: the content originates from ExerciseDB v1 by AscendAPI. This is verifiable from openGym's own data — the stored media filenames embed ExerciseDB's exerciseId (openGym's 0001 is 0001-2gPfomN.jpg; 2gPfomN is ExerciseDB's id for "3/4 sit-up"), every metadata field matches, and the instruction sentences are identical apart from stripped Step:N prefixes. See issue #5 on that dataset.

Metadata & instruction text

The exercise names, attributes and instructions (English in frontend/src/lib/exercises-data.js, other languages in frontend/src/instr/, regenerated via scripts/build-instructions.mjs) originate from ExerciseDB v1 and reach openGym through the dataset above, which distributes them under the MIT license reproduced below. The translations into languages other than English are openGym's own derivative work and are covered by openGym's AGPL.

Images & animations — third-party, not MIT and not AGPL

The exercise thumbnails (180×180) and animations are not covered by the MIT license above and not by openGym's AGPL. Their ownership is currently unresolved, and openGym states this plainly rather than guessing:

  • The upstream dataset attributes them to © Gym visual, redistributed there with that rights holder's written permission — a permission granted to that dataset and not transferable.
  • ExerciseDB/AscendAPI describes itself as "the original creator and owner" of this content and publishes its own terms, which permit self-hosting, bundling and commercial display, while prohibiting redistribution of the raw dataset or media as a standalone or competing content package.

These two claims contradict each other. A clarification has been requested from AscendAPI; this notice will be updated once the provenance is settled.

Until then, treat the media as third-party content licensed to neither openGym nor to you.

openGym does not redistribute it. It is not in this repository, not in its history, and not in the published container images or the Android APK. A self-hosted instance downloads it from the upstream source on first docker compose up; the mobile and demo builds load it from a CDN at runtime.

If you want to reuse the media — in openGym or anywhere else, commercially or not — clear it with the rights holder first, and keep any attribution that accompanies it intact.

Brazilian Portuguese exercise instructions under scripts/instruction-sources/pt-BR.json and exercise names under scripts/exercise-name-sources/pt-BR.json are original translations of that English source produced with OpenAI Codex and Anthropic Claude Code language-model assistance. They are not copied from a separate Portuguese dataset. Their review status and translation policy are documented alongside the source files.

Gym check-in QR codes

The gym check-in feature (a saved membership code shown as a QR code on the phone, added by typing, importing a photo, or scanning with the camera) uses three third-party packages. All are permissively licensed and compatible with openGym's AGPL, and all load on demand: the QR renderer and the browser decoder only when a card is shown or scanned, the ML Kit plugin only in the Android/iOS app.

QR/barcode rendering — lean-qr

openGym renders each saved code on the phone with lean-qr by David Evans, used under the MIT License and reproduced below. Only the code's stored value is kept; the picture is generated fresh from that value each time it is shown, never stored. It runs the same way in the app and in the browser/PWA.

Camera scan & photo decode in the browser — jsQR

In a browser (including the installed PWA), reading a code from the camera or from an imported photo uses jsQR by Cosmo Wolfe, under the Apache License 2.0 (text at https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 and in the package's own LICENSE). Where the browser has a native BarcodeDetector, that is tried first and jsQR is the fallback. Video frames are decoded in memory and never uploaded or stored.

Camera scan & photo decode in the app — @capacitor-mlkit/barcode-scanning

In the Android/iOS app, reading a code — from the camera or from an imported photo — uses the @capacitor-mlkit/barcode-scanning plugin by the Capawesome Team (Robin Genz), a Capacitor wrapper around Google's ML Kit, used under the Apache License 2.0. openGym pins the 7.x line to stay on Capacitor 7. The full license text is available at https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0 and in the package's own LICENSE file. The decoded string is what openGym keeps; the photo itself is never stored.
