Glow is an educational, hobbyist operating system written in C and Assembly, developed to help learners understand the internals of OS design and kernel development. Targeting x86_64 systems, Glow features its own kernel, bootloader, and minimal userland. With clear code structure and a simple design, it serves as a playground for experimenting with low-level systems programming, boot sequences, interrupt handling, and basic UI components like shells and text rendering.

Aura Operating System is a GUI-based, object-oriented operating system written in C#. It is designed to showcase how high-level languages like C# can be used to create low-level systems such as kernels, user interfaces, and file systems. Aura features a colorful, windowed graphical desktop environment with built-in applications, all running on a custom kernel built from scratch. It is not based on Linux or Windows, but rather developed as an independent system with its own structure and drivers.

MOOS (Meta Operating System) is an academic and experimental OS designed for clarity and extensibility, focusing on simplicity and modular construction. Written in Rust, MOOS provides a safe and modern platform to explore low-level system design, with a minimal but functional kernel that supports multitasking, a virtual memory manager, and a tiny standard library. It targets x86_64 and runs on QEMU, making it suitable for students and developers learning about OS fundamentals or testing novel ideas in kernel development.

Cosmos is an operating system "construction kit" made for Visual Studio 2022. Build your own OS using managed languages such as C#, VB.NET, and more! Cosmos (C# Open Source Managed Operating System) is an operating system development kit that uses Visual Studio as its development environment. Despite C# in the name any .NET-based language can be used including VB.NET, Fortran, Delphi Prism, IronPython, F# and more. Cosmos itself and the kernel routines are primarily written in C#, and thus the Cosmos name. ...

FlingOS is an educational operating system and framework aimed at teaching students and developers how operating systems work, using C# and a bit of C++ and assembly. It allows developers to build kernels in a managed, high-level language and understand the entire bootstrapping and runtime process from scratch. FlingOS is particularly focused on making OS development more accessible by bridging the gap between high-level languages and low-level hardware programming.

An operating system based upon the MOSA kernel. Currently still in the design process.

One day there will be a Windows 9, coming after Windows 8 and current Windows 7. Why not starting working now on a Windows 9 similar open source OS ten years before it appears instead of still working on it 10 years after it will become obsolete?
