Linux

Linux is an open-source operating system, meaning its source code is publicly available for anyone to view, modify, and distribute. It is based on the Unix operating system and is known for its stability, security, and flexibility. Used by individuals, businesses, and servers worldwide, Linux powers various devices, from smartphones to supercomputers. Unlike proprietary systems like Windows or macOS, Linux offers many distributions (or "distros") tailored to different needs, making it a popular choice for developers, enthusiasts, and organizations seeking customizable and cost-effective solutions. Its community-driven nature fosters innovation and collaboration.
