The Growing Community of ConfigCat
· 6 min read
Before the open source movement, software programs were 'closed source,' meaning only software developers employed by the company could access and modify them. Outsiders were kept out through non-disclosure agreements and licenses. This exclusivity motivated the creation of the open-source movement, aiming to preserve the freedom to modify and distribute software through publicly accessible code. Today, many commercial companies actively participate in the open-source ecosystem, maintaining software that is open to the public for access and contributions. One such company supporting this effort is ConfigCat.
