GNOME Software displays a tile indicating whether an application is [free software](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software) or whether it’s proprietary. This tile includes more detailed information about the project’s license. This tile also lists some of the benefits of free software.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Sometimes the license information isn’t correct for an application, and hence an application which is actually free software will be shown as ‘proprietary’.

GNOME Software displays a list of links for an application, giving the user access to related resources. This includes the application’s home page, it’s bug reporting page, a way to donate to the application’s developers, and information on contributing translations to the application.

Some or all of these links may be present depending on whether they are listed in the application’s metainfo.

The links for an application are stored as [`<url>` elements](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#tag-url) within the application’s `<component>` in its metainfo file.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Add as many of the link types documented in the [appstream specification](https://www.freedesktop.org/software/appstream/docs/chap-Metadata.html#tag-url) as are available for the application. If no suitable page exists for a given link type, it doesn’t have to be included.
