Open Source Tools

Software Development and Engineering Practices

Open source tools are software applications and utilities released with publicly accessible source code that developers and organizations can freely use, modify, and redistribute. Examples span version control (Git), text editors (VS Code, Vim), databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL), and DevOps utilities (Docker, Kubernetes), and they are foundational to modern software development workflows. Teams adopt them to avoid vendor lock-in, reduce licensing costs, and benefit from community-driven improvements and security review.
