What is an Open Source Software?

-
The term open source refers to something people can modify and share because its design is publicly accessible. The term originated in the context of software development to designate a specific approach to creating computer programs. Today, however, "open source" designates a broader set of values—what we call "the open source way." Open source projects, products, or initiatives embrace and celebrate principles of open exchange, collaborative participation, rapid prototyping, transparency, meritocracy, and community-oriented development.Open source software is software with source code that anyone can inspect, modify, and enhance. "Source code" is the part of software that most computer users don't ever see; it's the code computer programmers can manipulate to change how a piece of software—a "program" or "application"—works. Programmers who have access to a computer program's source code can improve that program by adding features to it or fixing parts that don't always work correctly.

Visual Studio Code or VSC for short is one of the most popular source code editor used by the programmers. It's fast, it's lightweight and it's powerful too! Microsoft designed VSC as a cross-platform code editor for writing web and cloud applications. Visual Studio Code is a streamlined code editor with support for development operations like debugging, task running, and version control. It aims to provide just the tools a developer needs for a quick code-build-debug cycle and leaves more complex workflows to fuller featured IDEs, such as Visual Studio IDE. To understand why VsCode is not an IDE, you have to first understand the difference between an IDE and a code editor. Basing in this source, An IDE is not just a tool where you write the code, but you can also compile it and debug it. Text editors, on the other hand, tend to go for a broader approach.
