The Collaborative software development model is a style of software development whose focus is on public availability and communication, usually via the Internet.

The software development model began widespread adoption with the Linux kernel in 1991.

It is the dominant model used in development of free software. It is very compatible with free software because free software projects publish the source code of any published programs, so they do not have the secrecy reason for hiding their communications and in-progress development.
