📽 Tutorial for starting

Overview

Also, the Hurd wiki probably can tell us everything, but it would be better if I can show some tutorials for beginners. More choices are good than only one.

Topics

  1. Introduction
  2. Setting up the development environment
  3. Understanding the Hurd architecture
  4. Creating a simple Hurd application
  5. Contributing to the Hurd project
  6. Conclusion

Introduction

The GNU Hurd project is free and open-source, but it is quite different from the open-source projects we have now. Here is a philosophy from the GNU Hurd Wiki.

Any contributions to the GNU Hurd project are welcome.

Source Code

{% hint style="info" %} The member of the project should download code by using the Developer setup,

it can give you a write permission. {% endhint %}
