Arduino is [[open-source hardware]]. The hardware reference designs are distributed under a [[Creative Commons]] Attribution Share-Alike 2.5 license and are available on the Arduino website. Layout and production files<ref>https://content.arduino.cc/assets/UNO-TH_Rev3e-reference.zip</ref> for some versions of the hardware are also available.
Although the hardware and software designs are freely available under [[copyleft]] licenses, the developers have requested the name ''Arduino'' to be [[generic trademark|exclusive to the official product]] and not be used for derived works without permission. The official policy document on use of the Arduino name emphasizes that the project is open to incorporating work by others into the official product.<ref name="AutoF7-44" /> Several Arduino-compatible products commercially released have avoided the project name by using various names ending in ''-duino''.<ref name="freeduino" />
