It's the "license" page straight from his Github repo, I posted the link above.

 

An even more colourful overview is provided by tldrlegal.com:

https://choosealicense.com/ is also a good help to decide which one to pick.

I am not a lawyer but on the left column you have commercial use permission so you can use it for commercial project. I may be wrong but for me the disclose source condition concern only the components source and not the whole source of your commercial project.

I used this one to select the licence. But as I said I am not a lawyer so I have not looked all the details of the licence but just the basic informations and the GPL-3 seems to be ok for me

But the page you used correctly says:

The GNU GPLv3 also lets people do almost anything they want with your project, except distributing closed source versions.

So yes, I may still charge money for the software I sell ("commercial"), but I will have to make all of my source code (not just yours) available to everybody.
