Working with open source software

[Yamin]

Probably you also want to download the source code to your local computer for development. It sounds you are not familiar with git (version-control-system) and github. So you will benefit from a quick introduction tutorial to git/github.

Oh yeah this was the point I was trying to make. I took 'artisian' as an example(this is where I first thought of this question).
Thanks so much for the help
