We think that knowledge should be shared and, because of that, we've decided to make all the documents at **Disroot Howto** available to be used by others and improved or adapted to their needs.<br>

By using a **Creative Commons license** we make it publicly clear that all documentation (how-to's) published at [howto.disroot.org](https://howto.disroot.org) are free to adapt, improve, distribute and/or share the adaptations.
**Therefore, we ask to all those people that wish to contribute with a new tutorial to our [How-to](https://howto.disroot.org) page, that accept to release it under the Creative Commons License BY-SA.**
The **Creative Commons BY-SA**, allows anyone to modify and share a tutorial freely as long as the publishing conditions are in accordance with the following:
