Project E

Project E is a small Operating System (if we can say so) composed of a basic bootloader and of a simple kernel, capable of execute shell commands.

It was developped and tested under Linux Mint 19, on a x86_64 machine.

Making your own application to use in Project E

We have a nice application template under src/app.asm.
