Open Source Eiffel System Software

Eifflix will be a free operating system (OS) for your computer. An operating system is the set of basic programs and utilities that make your computer run. Eifflix will be similar to Debian, both in concept in structure and borrows many of the Debian tools. The main difference is that the primary source code language for Eifflix will be Eiffel. Currently almost 70% of Debian is written in C or C++. The aim of Eifflix is to replicate Debian, replacing as much as possible of the low-level C code with higher-level design-by-contract Eiffel code. Beginning as a collection of packages, we hope one day to provide a full operating system as stated at http://eifflix.org.

Exploring the possibilities of doing an Operating System completely different than all of the existing ones. Instead of basing it upon concepts that are 40 years old, design it from the ground up object oriented, peer-to-peer, and for security.

Attempt of a portable cross-language object-oriented benchmark . So far supporting C++, Objective-C, and Java. Support for Smalltalk, CLOS, CSharp, and Eiffel is in development.
