Open Source Software 3 stories

Open Source Software sits inside the wider Software Types & Licensing landscape but has a technical role specific enough to merit separate coverage. Coverage uses source code availability, open source licenses, free software licenses, and community-developed software to explain function, setup, support boundaries, and interactions with the rest of the platform. This keeps Open Source Software narrower than Software Types & Licensing as a whole while giving readers enough context to make configuration or compatibility decisions and recognize when a problem-specific tag is more appropriate.
