Genode is a capability-based, component-oriented operating system framework focused on building secure, modular, and flexible operating systems. Unlike monolithic or microkernel-only designs, Genode allows developers to construct OSes from fine-grained components that communicate through well-defined interfaces. It supports multiple kernels including NOVA, seL4, and Fiasco.OC, and has been used to build everything from microhypervisors to full desktops.

A Linux system for modern computers on an immutable foundation. Powered by OpenRC, MauiKit, NX AppHub, and Hyprland.

...It decomposes key operating system functionality such as file systems, networking, device drivers and graphical user interface into a collection of fine-grained user space components that interact with each other via message passing. A failure or crash of one component does not directly harm others. HelenOS is therefore flexible, modular, extensible, fault tolerant and easy to understand. HelenOS does not aim to be a clone of any existing operating system and trades compatibility with legacy APIs for cleaner design. Most of HelenOS components have been made to order specifically for HelenOS so that its essential parts can stay free of adaptation layers, glue code, franken-components and the maintenance burden incurred by them.

distortos is a lightweight real-time operating system (RTOS) designed for embedded systems, written in C++11. It targets ARM Cortex-M microcontrollers and is inspired by other embedded RTOSes like FreeRTOS but aims to provide a more modern C++ interface. distortos emphasizes modularity, portability, and ease of use in resource-constrained environments, making it ideal for IoT, robotics, and industrial automation applications. It includes a full-featured scheduler, thread management, and...

SuperX is a desktop-oriented computer operating system based on Ubuntu and Debian GNU/Linux, using the KDE desktop environment. It was originally developed in India by a teenager, Wrix who built it using free and open-source software. SuperX is highly modular, flexible and cloud-centric, with a desktop user interface especially designed with Linux beginners in mind.

newStep is an Operating System designed on Linux 2.6.12.3 with GNUstep and X11. As for the windowing system, we will try to use the modular release of X11 with a modified window manager to have a semi-MacOS X and NEXTSTEP apperance.
