Thank you. The license will come but I have a harder time understanding them than pointers haha.

For a utility library like this BSD 2 clause or MIT (they're essentially the same) would probably be the most common choice.

If you want others to make money from your code: MIT, BSD

If you want to use it as an offering to the open source community: GPL
