k23 is a microkernel-based operating system project written in Zig, an emerging systems programming language focused on safety, simplicity, and performance. k23 explores the design of modern OS features like message-passing, memory protection, and modular service construction using Zig’s powerful low-level capabilities. It is an experimental and educational project intended to show how Zig can be used for robust, readable systems programming while enabling contributors to rethink traditional OS structures from the ground up.

eduOS-rs is a teaching operating system written in Rust, developed by RWTH Aachen University to support courses on systems programming and operating systems. It serves as a practical and educational tool that demonstrates key OS concepts like memory management, multitasking, privilege separation, and system call handling in a safe and modern language. Designed to run on x86_64 hardware using QEMU, eduOS-rs leverages Rust’s ownership model and type safety to reduce bugs common in low-level systems development. ...

fltr is a minimal, dependency-free filtering utility written in C, inspired by UNIX philosophy and designed for high-performance data stream filtering. It allows users to apply pattern-based rules to lines of input—much like grep or awk—but with a focus on simplicity, low overhead, and customizability. It's intended for those who need a small, efficient tool to clean, parse, or analyze large streams of textual data on the command line without complex scripting or configuration.

rCore-Tutorial-v3 is an educational project designed to guide learners through the process of building a minimalistic operating system from scratch using the Rust programming language. Targeting the RISC-V architecture, this tutorial emphasizes safety and concurrency, leveraging Rust's features to teach OS fundamentals such as memory management, process scheduling, and file systems. It is structured to provide hands-on experience, making it suitable for both academic settings and self-study.
