Open Source

Open source software is open to distribution and modification by anyone in the world - that could be you! Open source projects are not only a way to contribute to the free technology movement, but also a great way to experiment with new languages and frameworks in a welcoming community. The open source community has created a wide array of projects from software to games to video editors to music to cryptocurrency!
