Open Source

Up to Glossary

This Definition applies to: Any version.

Open source refers to software that is non-proprietary, with limited copyrights in place. Users are able to access the computer code that drives the software and makes changes or additions to the initial 'out-of-the-box' product. Plone is open source which means that this practice allows for programmers all over the world to create new tools called products that users can pick and choose from.
