What is Open Source? |
||
---|---|---|
The term originated in the context of software development to designate a specific approach to creating computer programs. Today, however, “open source” designates a broader set of values- what we call “the open source way.” Open source projects, products, or initiatives embrace and celebrate principles of open exchange, collaborative participation, rapid prototyping, transparency, meritocracy, and community-oriented development. |

Open source is powerful because it lowers the barriers to adoption and collaboration, allowing people to spread and improve projects quickly. Also because it gives users a potential to control their own computing, relative to closed source. For example, a business using open source software has the option to hire someone to make custom improvements to the software rather than relying exclusively on a closed source vendor’s product decisions. |
