Would make sense to add a license to this repo

Any specific license to add?

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.

See here: https://www.tldrlegal.com/license/mit-license

BTW: This site states: "If a repository has no license, then all rights are reserved and it is not Open Source or Free. You cannot modify or redistribute this code without explicit permission from the copyright holder."
