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.

  • Fully graphical desktop environment with windowing system
  • Written in C# using a custom low-level kernel
  • FAT file system support for reading and writing files
  • GUI applications including file explorer, text editor, and console
  • Multitasking with basic window and process management
