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.
Features
- Written primarily in C# for accessible OS development
- Custom compiler and toolchain support for kernel building
- Detailed documentation and tutorials for learners
- Bootloader and kernel written from scratch
- Hardware abstraction for keyboard, screen, and timers
