Early Unix developers were important in bringing the concepts of modularity and reusability into software engineering practice, spawning a "<a target="_blank" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_tools">software tools</a>" movement. Over time, the leading developers of Unix (and programs that ran on it) established a set of cultural norms for developing software; these norms became as important and influential as the technology of Unix itself, and have been termed the "Unix philosophy."</p>
