Nope, all code was written by me (my friends helped in a few places).

Some of the docs were "improved" with AI (grammarly to be exact), but I'm probably going to go back and rewrite those, I didn't like it.

It's not registered anywhere, more like a claimed trademark of sorts(?) I'm honestly not really sure about how that sort of stuff works, I just wrote it to be safe.
