The workshop was conducted at Sridevi Women's Engineering College, Gandipet on the 31st July from 10:30am to 03:30pm. The students were first introduced to the importance and perks of using free softwares and why it is essential to do so. The students were given an idea about the open source concept and how it expands the boundaries of creation. The session began with a brief talk about free software. It was carried on by giving an overview of what is Debian and how it is different from other operating systems, and thereby gave an idea about installation of Debian. The workshop saw many enthusiastic students who wished to take their ideas further about the concept and learn many other skills. The installation of Debian, though was a tad difficult to understand for juniors, was understood clearly.
