I use Apache License 2.0 -> see here -> https://github.com/Vertexwahn/FlatlandRT/blob/main/LICENSE

You can also use BSD-3-Clause license -> see example -> https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openexr/blob/main/LICENSE.md

MIT would also be a good option -> https://choosealicense.com/licenses/mit/

It depends on how you want to license your work.

If you choose MIT, someone who wants to use your code has to do the following:

Basically, you can do whatever you want as long as you include the original copyright and license notice in any copy of the software/source. There are many variations of this license in use.
