Helix OS is a rewrite of OS-Thing from scratch, with an emphasis on simplicity and correctness. The end goal is to be a versatile kernel which is easily modifiable by a programmer.
It currently supports:
- Module loading and linking
- Kernel multithreading
- VFS with multiple file systems
- PCI devices
- IDE disks
- VGA text mode
- FAT12 filesystem
Next steps:
- Start working on the userland
- VGA framebuffer
- TCP/IP stack
- More filesystem drivers, e.g. EXT2
After that:
- Port development tools
- Be self-hosting
Still early in development.
