Open Source applications and games

Open-source software refers to computer software whose source code is made available to the public. The term "open source" means that anyone can view, use, modify, and distribute the source code. This is in contrast to proprietary or closed-source software, where the source code is kept secret and only the compiled, executable version is provided.
Various licenses govern the use and distribution of open-source software. Common open-source licenses include the GNU General Public License (GPL), Apache License, MIT License, and BSD License, each with its own terms and conditions.
