Open software is a type of computer program whose source code is available to the general public. The open-source model can be defined as “a method for developing computer software, whereby programmers can modify the source code with relatively few restrictions.” There are many benefits of open-source programs including: more security because bugs are fixed quickly and openly, less bloatware (less junk that slows down your system), better performance on older hardware, and improved compatibility between different operating systems.
This type of software is great for business because it can be modified to meet the needs of any company. There are many open-source programs that have office suites, email clients, and even gaming platforms like Steam which has over 2000 games available on its store platform.

In the next sentence: write about how licensing works in more detail. explain what open source means. link to a list of open source projects on github or another site (perhaps from Open Source Initiative) so readers can explore for themselves. mention what open source software is not.
Free, open source software (FOSS) means that users can use it for free and change the code as they see fit, so long as they release their modifications under a license of the same name – usually GNU GPL or another type of “open” license like MIT or Apache licenses which are more permissive than commercial ones from Microsoft and Apple. The FSF has an excellent list of such licenses on its website: – GNU General Public License – Mozilla Public License v. MPL – BSD Style Permissive Licenses[briefly describe one]
