Source code modifications warranty

While Tiledesk is provided as open source software we strictly follow the Open-closed principle.‌

See here: Open-closed principle on Wikipedia ‌

Tiledesk promotes many extension points (webhooks, APIs, events, triggers etc.) that can be used to modify the application behaviour, get events’ notifications or data in real time, customize the User Interfaces etc.‌

We always discourage our Users and Clients to modify the application core as well as UI components. If you need to heavily modify your UI components always provide your own new features in totally new components built on top of Tiledesk APIs.‌

Modifying original Tiledesk components irreversibly affects the frequent updates released to fix important bugs, to improve performance and that add new features. Moreover, on the supported plans, our engineering team can only provide consulting on original versions of the components without incurring in extra efforts.‌

For all of the above reasons we never provide support for modified versions of our software.‌

For the paid Support Packages, warranty always decades on modified components of the platform.
