wanix is a hobbyist Unix-like operating system written from scratch in C, aiming to implement core features of a traditional OS in an educational and modular way. The project walks through kernel development starting from bootloading, memory management, system calls, and eventually to user programs. With support for x86_64 and simple tools like a shell and basic file I/O, wanix serves as both a learning platform and a launching point for more advanced kernel features.
