What exactly is Open Source?

Well, to put it in layman’s terms, anything that is open source can be shared and modified by others freely. Anyone may see, alter, and share the code in open source software, which is created with the intention of being widely available.

Everyone who enjoys technology considers contributing to Open Source software at least once in their lives. Open Source has grown in popularity over the years since it allows people to learn while also contributing their knowledge. Which is why, it is encouraged that one who has the expertise, should make Open Source contributions.

But, why should one contribute to Open Source?
Calling it a noble cause could be a bit of a stretch but when you contribute to Open Source, you not only share your knowledge but also get to learn something new from someone else’s contribution. Plus, you get to interact with like-minded people.

But then again, is it possible to contribute to Open Source without having prior knowledge? How does one contribute to Open Source? What should be your approach? Are there set guidelines? Are there any prerequisites?

Here’s Kailash Nadh (CTO, Zerodha) guiding you through how one should approach Open Source contribution.
