No. Using GPL software has nothing to do with the code processed by it. Think about the GCC compiler :)

I think just using it locally in manual or ad-hoc senses is fine, but IIRC it can become tricky or at least a legal grey area if you commit code that automates using GPL developer tooling and/or pulls it into your development toolchain, e.g. via GitHub action or some other CI automation.

Disclaimer: Not a lawyer, this isn't legal advice.

Awesome! If there is any problem just post it in GitHub issues. We will also be releasing 2023.4 very soon.
