Lingmo GNU/Linux (Lingmo OS) is a desktop based Linux operating system developed based on the open-source Debian kernel and adapted to the amd64 architecture. It has a beautiful desktop environment, software that is compatible with the desktop environment, and a unified UI style. The goal of Lingmo GNU/Linux is to provide users with a luxurious and practical desktop environment as well as a smooth experience on low performance hardware.

SerenityOS is an open source Unix-like operating system project with its own custom kernel, graphical user interface, system libraries, and userland tools. It combines a nostalgic “90s UI aesthetic” with modern system capabilities: a preemptive, multi-threaded kernel, own browsers, network stack, file systems, IPC, security features, and a suite of graphical / developer applications. The project is both a hobbyist OS and a polished engineering sandbox.

hhuOS is an educational operating system project developed by students at Heinrich Heine University (HHU) in Düsseldorf, Germany. It is built from scratch in C and Assembly and intended as a teaching tool to help students grasp the foundations of kernel development, memory management, system calls, and multitasking. The project focuses on clarity, modularity, and hands-on experimentation with real OS components, making it suitable for OS development courses or personal exploration.

Vinari OS 5.0.0 KRYPTON represents the next stage in our Debian-based evolution, now built on the 64-bit Debian 13 “Trixie” platform. Designed for both everyday users and developers, this release delivers a polished, reliable, and cohesive experience. At its foundation, Vinari OS 5.0.0 KRYPTON features the modern GNOME desktop environment, refined with practical enhancements such as GSConnect, DashToDock, and other usability-focused extensions. Continuing our focus on simplicity and...

pranaOS is a hobby operating system built from scratch in C and C++, intended to teach and demonstrate operating system fundamentals such as process control, memory management, and kernel bootstrapping. It is designed for the x86_64 architecture and features a custom shell, task scheduler, and keyboard driver. With a strong focus on education, pranaOS serves as a base for experimenting with kernel development and learning how different subsystems interact in a functioning OS.

Xyris is a microkernel-based operating system developed with a focus on modularity, simplicity, and modern code practices. Written in C++, Xyris separates drivers and system services into isolated components using message passing, in line with microkernel philosophy. It’s designed as a research and hobbyist OS, with a clean codebase and early implementations of multitasking, system calls, and filesystem abstractions. Xyris serves as a foundation for further exploration into reliable OS...

Drauger OS is an Ubuntu-based Linux desktop gaming distribution that ships with many modifications and optimizations over stock Ubuntu that are intended to improve gaming performance and the gaming experience. From simple changes such as swapping Gnome out for the light-weight Xfce Desktop Environment and using a dark GTK theme by default, to more complex changes such as using a kernel compiled in-house and replacing PulseAudio with Pipewire.

An open-source alternative to Apple Mac OS X. Intended to comply completely with the OPENSTEP specification. Written in Objective-C. Kernel based on FreeBSD.

Media Lab Asia collaborated with IIT Delhi for development real-time kernel O/S named “RTKER OS” portable on microprocessor based systems and a Multithreaded O/S for 8-bit microcontrollers (like 8051 and ATMega128) as low cost embedded solution.

HRCS (Hospital romm control system) is a system for remote operator monitoring of hospital rooms. HRCS supports serial or TCP/IP communication. HRCS is based on the linux kernel and is the only one process running in the OS.
