The README banner is redrawn in the new design (docs/media/banner.html), and the launcher and menu screenshots (README and website) are the restyled ones. The website's launcher section gains a Launcher tab: its screenshots no longer show the old background, whose licence was never confirmed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

The website's assets and their licences
Every file the site serves, where it comes from and the terms it is used under. The build
copies this file to /LEGAL.md on the site.
Horizon is not an official Minecraft product. It is not approved by or associated with Mojang or Microsoft. Minecraft is a trademark of Mojang Synergies AB.
Code
| File | Source | Licence |
|---|---|---|
src/*.html, src/*.css, src/*.js, build.mjs, serve.mjs, scripts/*, Caddyfile, Dockerfile |
Written for this site | MIT, as the rest of Horizon (LICENSE) |
The site loads no third-party code at runtime: no frameworks, CDNs, analytics, trackers or
cookies. The only requests to other hosts are the browser's calls to api.github.com
(releases and patch notes) and raw.githubusercontent.com (launcher/links.json), both on Horizon's own repository.
Fonts
| File | Source | Licence |
|---|---|---|
public/fonts/Geist-Regular.woff2, Geist-Medium.woff2, Geist-SemiBold.woff2, GeistMono-Regular.woff2 |
Geist and Geist Mono, from crates/horizon-theme/fonts (converted from TTF to WOFF2) |
SIL Open Font License 1.1, shipped as public/fonts/OFL-Geist.txt |
The fonts are self-hosted; nothing is fetched from a font service.
Icons and the social preview
| File | Source | Licence |
|---|---|---|
public/favicon.svg, public/favicon-32.png, public/apple-touch-icon.png |
Horizon's mark, docs/media/brand/icon.svg (an original drawing: an H whose crossbar is the horizon), rendered by cargo run -p xtask -- icons |
MIT, Horizon's original work |
public/og.png |
Rendered by scripts/shots.mjs from public/og.html: the mark, a headline and the faint wordmark, in Geist |
MIT for the layout; the fonts as listed here |
No Minecraft logo or wordmark appears anywhere on the site, in images or as text styling. GitHub and Discord appear only as plain text links, without their logos.
No hero image
The page opens on type, not a photograph. The launcher's old background
(launcher/assets/background.jpg, from backgrounds.supply, licence never confirmed) is gone from
the repository, so the launcher's screenshots no longer show it.
Screenshots
All captured in Horizon's Rust client, with vanilla resources prepared from the maintainer's
own copy of Minecraft: Java Edition 26.3, and no mods or shaders. Converted to WebP at 1600
and 800 pixels wide by scripts/assets.mjs.

Horizon's interface in these images is Horizon's original work (MIT). The block, mob and item textures and the HUD sprites drawn in them belong to Mojang and Microsoft; they are shown as screenshots of the game, as the Minecraft Usage Guidelines allow for fan websites about the game, with the disclaimer they require. The site offers no game files: players need their own legally obtained copy of Minecraft: Java Edition.
Text
The parity table is generated from Horizon's README, and the patch notes come from Horizon's GitHub releases: Horizon's own text, MIT.
Contributors
The Contributors block lists the GitHub accounts that have committed to Horizon: login,
commit count and profile link, from GitHub's API. Their avatars are not stored in this repository;
the visitor's browser loads them from avatars.githubusercontent.com, each one the picture its
owner chose for their GitHub account. Bots are left out.
