A Quick Recap on FOSS (for new subscribers)

Free and Open-Source Software (FOSS) is about creating and using technology that is open, adaptable, and accessible to everyone. The goal is to encourage Bhutanese communities to not only use software but also learn, contribute, and innovate. This meet-up will serve as the first step in building a FOSS community in Bhutan and provide us the space to learn about it more from one another.

We are quite happy to have our website live www.fossbhutan.bow.st, designed by Drawah Tech Space. We would slowly be updating it with all the exciting things.
