Open source
refers to something
people can modify and share
because its design is publicly accessible.
Open source software with source code
that anyone can inspect, modify, and enhance.
Some open source licenses— "copyleft" licenses
stipulate that anyone
who releases a modified open source program
must also release the source code
for that program alongside it.
Some open source licenses stipulate
that anyone who alters and shares a program with others
must also share that program's source code
without charging a licensing fee for it.
Linux operating system
Apache Web server
LibreOffice
