Linus Torvalds — a student who simply wanted to build a better operating system for his own computer… and ended up changing the course of technology forever.

Today, Linux powers everything from servers and smartphones to the infrastructure behind the internet itself. But its rise wasn’t planned. It wasn’t funded. And it certainly wasn’t supposed to compete with tech giants.

This is the story of curiosity, collaboration, and an open-source movement that rewrote the rules.

Tech Stories tells the hidden, surprising stories behind the world’s most influential tech companies, inventions, and creators—packed with insights, suspense, and real lessons you can apply.
