Namaste Salesforce Open Source Learning Project
Introduction to Open Source and Namaste Salesforce
Welcome to Namaste Salesforce, an open-source learning project created by Swarnil. Open source is a collaborative model where software is freely available for anyone to use, modify, and distribute. It fosters innovation, encourages learning, and enables developers from around the world to work together on exciting projects.

- Transparency: The source code is publicly accessible.
- Collaboration: Developers from different backgrounds contribute.
- Freedom: Anyone can use, modify, and share the software.
- Community-driven development: Decisions are often made collectively.
