Think of a community garden where everyone helps plant crops and anyone can take some food for free. That's Open Source.

It means the code is public. Anyone can see it, learn from it, and even suggest improvements. Most of the internet runs on open-source software like Linux and Python.

It's a beautiful way of working. It means a student in a small village in Nigeria can use the same high-quality tools as a developer at Silicon Valley. Use these resources wisely!
