Brand and logo
This page is website/pages/brand.md in the repository, and changing it changes this page.
The Pudu name and logo identify this project. These rules exist so that a reader can tell what is Pudu and what is someone else's work built with it.
The name
Pudu is capitalised as a proper noun. The command is pudu, lower case, set in code when it appears in prose. Source files end in .pudu.
A pudú is a small deer from South America. The language is named after it, and the name is not an acronym, so it is never written PUDU.
Using the logo
The logo may be used without asking to:
- link to this site or to the repository,
- illustrate an article, talk, or tutorial about Pudu,
- say that your project is written in Pudu, or that your library or tool works with it.
When using it, keep clear space around the logo of at least the height of the letter P, and do not place it on a background that leaves it hard to read. Do not stretch it, recolour it, rotate it, add effects to it, or rebuild it from parts.
What needs asking first
Do not use the logo or the name in a way that suggests this project made, endorses, or maintains something it does not. In particular, do not use them:
- as your own product, company, or application icon,
- in your project's name in a way that reads as official, such as "Pudu Cloud" or "Pudu Enterprise",
- on merchandise for sale,
- in a domain name that reads as an official Pudu site.
A name of the form "X for Pudu" or "Pudu bindings for X" is fine and needs no permission. If you are unsure, ask at <chrisperezsantiago1@gmail.com>.
Files
The logo is in the repository under website/public/assets: the full logo with the wordmark, and the short mark on its own. Use the full logo where there is room and the short mark where there is not.
Licence
The compiler, the standard library, and the documentation are licensed under Apache-2.0. That licence covers the code, not the name or the logo, which these rules cover instead.
