Creating a New Source in OCL
Sources serve as repositories for original content, storing the concepts you create as well as any concepts you adapt from other sources.
In the case of adapting, what usually happens is that you come across a concept that closely aligns with your requirements but isn’t an exact match.
You can ‘Clone’ it by copying it into your source and modifying it to better suit your needs. This process allows you to develop new concepts that may not be available in existing libraries.
