Open source refers to a program with source code that can be modified or enhanced by anyone. Open source grants users of an application permission to fix broken links, enhance the design, or improve the original code. Open source software (OSS) is an example of a kind of open collaboration that can broaden design perspectives far more than a single company or design work group.

Open Source Is A Powerful Concept And Used Correctly It Evolves A Powerful & Sustainable Ecosystem Around It. Open Source Can Be A Powerful Strategy That Drives Growth And Innovation.

As the popularity of open source grows, it's important to remember that with growth comes complexity and that being involved in open source comes with the mindset that collaboration makes the world a better place. The true spirit of open source is to give and take; Africans have been accused of taking and hardly ever giving back. Some ways to contribute include.
  • Provide code to help improve software
  • Help fix bugs
  • Help in providing answers to questions asked in various forums
  • Help to translate into local languages- FYI xampp needs translators in swahili
