The use of open source in website development has become mainstream – I dare say ubiquitous. Many developers utilize open source projects to build and scale dynamic websites. WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal are some of the more popular (you’ve probably heard of all three). LAMP stacks are used to run web servers. MySQL databases are used for website databases. Firefox is used to test and trouble shoot coding and rendering issues, as well as to browse; you may, in fact, be reading this post in it right now??? I could go on and on. In the world of website application development you???d be hard pressed to find a site that doesn’t leverage open source code to some extent. Irrespective of size, organizations are running their websites using open source technology.
