Anyone can compile open source code in these three simple steps… It’s a part of open source’s heritage, and is quite liberating

You don’t need to know how to write or read code to compile it. There are many ways to install software, but you get an option not available elsewhere with open source: You can compile the code yourself, and it only takes three standard commands.
I don’t have to do this very often myself (with the ease of one-click installs from repos included with distros today), but I must say it is a liberating feeling knowing you can do it, and that you have the ability to examine or change the source code if you wish, and to compile it yourself. It is the essence of what open source is all about.

There are many ways to install software, but you get an option not available elsewhere with open source: You can compile the code yourself. The classic three-step process to compile source code: $ ./configure $ make $ sudo make install Thanks to these commands, you might be surprised to find that you don’t need to know how to write or even read code to compile it.
