Affero

The Affero domain relates to the Affero General Public License (AGPL), a type of open-source license designed to ensure that software remains free and transparent. Under AGPL, if you use or modify the software and provide it as a service over a network (like a website or app), you're required to share the source code with anyone who uses it. This promotes collaboration and accountability, ensuring that improvements benefit the entire community. Essentially, Affero helps maintain the openness of software, even when it’s offered as a service, encouraging sharing and innovation.
