Linux
Linux is a computer operating system like unix,windows etc.. Linux is one of the most famous examples of free software and open source development; its underlying source code can be freely modified, used, and redistributed by anyone.The Linux kernel was first released to the community on 17 September 1991, for the Intel x86 PC architecture. The kernel was enlarged with system utilities and libraries from the GNU project to create a usable operating system, which later led to the alternate term GNU/Linux.Linux is now packaged for different uses in Linux distributions, which contain the sometimes customized kernel along with a variety of other software packages tailored to different requirements.
