Open Source
Our philosophy
Why we chose open source for all our projects.
What is open source?
Open source software is software whose source code is public and accessible to everyone. This means anyone can examine, modify and distribute it. It's the opposite of closed proprietary software.
Benefits of open source
Freedom
You're not locked in to a vendor. You can switch providers or manage it yourself.
Transparency
The code is auditable. No hidden features or backdoors.
Security
Thousands of eyes examine the code. Flaws are detected and fixed quickly.
Sustainability
No planned obsolescence. The software continues even if a company disappears.
Innovation
A worldwide community contributes to continuous improvement.
Savings
No expensive software licenses to renew.
Open Source ≠ Free
The software is free, but expertise has a cost. Just like companies pay Red Hat for Linux support, you pay Felidomo for our Home Assistant expertise: design, installation, configuration, training and maintenance. This is what guarantees a reliable and efficient system.
