Abstract

Open source software is very popular now a days. It is popular because its source code is opened to all. Any programmer, software developer can change its source code and develop a new one. It's another option is that any one can use these software or download different tools free of cost from different websites. For these reasons open source software's popularity is increasing day by day in the ICT sector. All kinds of software are available in open source software for using from home to commercial purpose. By using the open source software Bangladesh can be benefited in many ways. Now I am going to focuse on the different benefits of open source software for Bangladesh.
