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.

Features

  • Unix-like OS kernel written in C for x86_64
  • Custom bootloader and kernel initialization
  • Paging-based virtual memory management
  • Simple file system interface with FAT-like structure
  • System call interface for user-space programs
  • Basic text-mode VGA terminal driver
  • Multitasking with process isolation
