Why Open Source?
Open Source technology has now developed into a complete, rapidly growing entity, providing great freedom and control to its users. The opportunities with open source are unlimited and Linux is considered as the harbinger of the open source movement.
Open source software provides the source code to its users, allowing them to study, modify, and distribute the software freely. This approach has led to the development of some of the most robust and reliable software in the world.
