Template Terms
Submission rules for contributing starter CSS to Narvi.
Last updated: March 8, 2026
Overview
Narvi accepts template CSS only when it can be reviewed, adapted, and redistributed as an open starter. The baseline expectation is permissive, MIT-style reuse: people should be able to use, modify, and ship the template without negotiating private rights or carrying proprietary restrictions.
What you are confirming
By submitting a template, you confirm that you have the right to share the CSS and any accompanying notes. You also confirm that Narvi may store, review, evaluate, and potentially adapt the submission for inclusion in the public template library.
License expectation
Submitted templates must be available under an open-source license that allows copying, modification, redistribution, and practical reuse. The intended bar is MIT-style permissive licensing, or another clearly permissive license with materially similar freedoms.
If the rights are unclear, private, revocable, client-restricted, or dependent on a marketplace purchase, the submission does not qualify.
What is not accepted
- Purchased themes or marketplace assets that are not sublicensable as open source.
- Client work or employer-owned CSS unless you have explicit authority to release it.
- Copied proprietary stylesheets, internal design systems, or reverse-engineered brand code.
- CSS containing secrets, credentials, private URLs, or company-specific internal references.
- Submissions that depend on assets you cannot legally redistribute.
Review and publication
Submission does not guarantee publication. Narvi may reject, revise, or ignore any submission that does not fit the library direction, quality bar, or these terms. Narvi may also contact you using the submitted email address if license clarity or attribution needs follow-up.
Practical interpretation
The simplest rule is this: if another developer cannot safely take the submitted CSS, inspect it, modify it, and reuse it in an open workflow, it should not be submitted here.
Reference basis
These terms are informed by the MIT License and the Open Source Definition. Narvi is not reproducing those licenses here, but this page uses them as the model for what counts as permissive, reusable submission material.
