===Free software=== SGI was a promoter of [[free software]],{{citation needed|date=December 2013}} supporting several projects such as [[Linux kernel|Linux]] and [[Samba (software)|Samba]], and opening some of its own previously proprietary code such as the [[XFS]] filesystem and the [[Open64]] compiler. SGI was also important in its contribution to the C++ [[Standard Template Library]] (STL) with many useful extensions in the [[MIT License|MIT-like licensed]] SGI STL implementation. The extension keeps being carried by the direct descendant [[STLport]] and GNU's [[libstdc++]].<ref>{{cite web |title=SGI Standard Template Library Programmer's Guide |url=https://www.boost.org/sgi/stl/index.html |access-date=9 January 2020}}</ref>
