Open Source

Open source refers to software or projects whose source code is made freely available for anyone to view, modify, and distribute. This approach promotes collaborative development, transparency, and community-driven innovation. Open source software is often developed in a public, collaborative manner and can be used for various purposes without licensing fees. Notable examples include the Linux operating system, the Apache web server, and the Mozilla Firefox browser. The open source model contrasts with proprietary software, where the source code is kept secret. Read more on Wikipedia.This piece of text has been generated by artificial intelligence.
