Graphics hardware and FOSS
Okay kiddo, have you ever seen pictures on a computer screen or on a TV? Those pictures are made up of tiny dots called pixels.
Now, do you know what hardware means? It's the physical parts of a computer or a device that help it work.
Graphics hardware refers to the parts of the computer that help create those pictures on the screen.
Now, let's talk about what FOSS means. FOSS stands for Free and Open-Source Software. It's like a recipe that people can use to create their own software, just like how your mom might use a recipe to bake a cake.
So, when people talk about graphics hardware and FOSS, they are talking about using software recipes that are free and open to everyone's use to help the graphics hardware create those pictures on your screen.
This is important because it means that more people can use and contribute to making these software recipes better, instead of just a few companies keeping it to themselves. And that helps make better pictures on our screens for everyone to enjoy!
