I recently started learning open source technologies and very soon got frustrated as there are thousands of technologies and tools (each one having their own pros and cons). I am wondering if Windows approach of "All in One" is actually better.
Some people prefer open source software because they consider it more secure and stable than proprietary software. Because anyone can view and modify open source software, someone might spot and correct errors or omissions that a program's original authors might have missed.
Open source is a type of licensing agreement that allows users to freely modify a work, use said work in new ways, integrate the work into a larger project or derive a new work based on the original.
These open source softwares are available to users for free, but more importantly, they're available to programmers. The source code is readily available, meaning that programmers can use it to create their own versions, and change any issues with current versions.
Why are there so many companies that produce cars, bread and tables? Wouldn't it be more productive to consolidate them into a singe mega-car, mega-bread and omni-table company?
