Software Libre

Software Libre, or Free Software, refers to programs that are released with licenses allowing users to freely use, study, modify, and share the code. This promotes transparency, collaboration, and collective improvement, as anyone can contribute or adapt the software to their needs. Unlike proprietary software, which restricts access and modification, Software Libre emphasizes user rights and openness, fostering innovation and community-driven development. It’s often supported by organizations that prioritize freedom, accessibility, and sharing in the technology space.
