What is Google Open Source

According to our research, the Google Open Source domain was first registered on 2019-03-26, what is funny is that Google has its own TLD :), or domain extension.

The project is about google publishing its internal documentation for how they do open source at Google.

The documentation has three primary sections:

  • Creating covers how Googlers release code that they’ve written.
  • Using explains how we bring open source code into the company and use it to help build great products.
  • Growing describes some of the programs we run inside and outside the company to support open source communities.

publish our internal documentation for all the world to see! One of the goals of the site is to expose (where appropriate) our internal processes related to open source so that other companies have the opportunity to learn from them.
