Open source tools for rapid development, contribution and growth

This workshop focused on the concept of open source and the licensing of open source software (OSS). It highlighted various open source tools that developers can use for rapid development and prototyping at a low cost. Additionally, I discussed several paid open source programs that individuals can join to contribute to open source software and enhance their skills.

4. the concept of open source Source code is not public. Software’s vendor or authorized developers can modify code. Restrictive licenses limit modification, distribution, and usage. Requires payment for licenses, subscriptions, or per-user fees. Limited customization options, dictated by the vendor. Security relies on the vendor Support provided by the vendor, often with paid support plans. Owned and controlled by the vendor, who can change terms or discontinue support. proprietary software
5. Source code is publicly available Anyone can modify or contribute to the source code Permissive licenses allowing modification, distribution, use with conditions. Free to use, but may have costs for support or services. Highly customizable, as users can modify the code. Community-driven security Support comes from the community or forums & documentation The community or project maintainers have ownership, offering long-term availability and control over the software. the concept of open source open source software

7. why open source? No licensing fees. cost effectiveness Transparent code allows for community-driven audits and quick fixes. security Continuous updates, bug fixes, and feature improvements from global contributors. community support Tailor tools to specific needs without vendor lock-in. Flexibility and Customization
8. Open source licenses Strong copyleft Permissive licenses You can do anything with it even using on closed source products as long as you credit the OSS Examples: MIT, APACHE Free usage but modifications made must be open sourced under same license Ecanple: GPL(GNU), AGPL
9. Open source licenses Public domain "no license" Weak copyleft license You can use in proprietary softwares but modified open source software component must be open sourced Example: LGPL You have complete freedom to use the software without any conditions Examples: Unlicense, CC0
