Free as in Freedom

All of my creations and supporting frameworks used are free (as in freedom) and open source, otherwise known as FOSS.

FOSS allows you to maintain the four essential freedoms:

  • The freedom to run the program for any desired purpose
  • The freedom to learn and change how the program works
  • The freedom to redistribute the program as is
  • The freedom to redistribute the program with your own changes
