About

ReactOS is an operating system. Our own main features are that ReactOS is able to run Windows software, and it is also able to run Windows drivers. ReactOS looks-like Windows, and it is free and open source. ReactOS is a free and open source operating system written from scratch. Its design is based on Windows in the same way Linux is based on Unix, however ReactOS is not Linux. ReactOS looks and feels like Windows, is able to your run all your Windows applications and software, as well as all your Windows drivers, and is familiar to Windows users. You can create your own ReactOS versions! You’re using Open Source software daily if you use Firefox, LibreOffice, OpenOffice, GNU-Linux distributions among zillions of Open Source projects out there. The Open Source projects, as ReactOS, are driven for and by its Community, so being active translating, donating, or coding is a way to help ReactOS boost forward.

About

i3 is a tiling window manager, completely written from scratch. The target platforms are GNU/Linux and BSD operating systems, our code is Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) under the BSD license. i3 is primarily targeted at advanced users and developers. Based upon the experiences we made when wanting to hack/fix wmii, we agreed upon the following goals for i3. This includes being modifiable by people who do know how to program but who are not necessarily familiar with all of X11’s internals. That is, document why things happen and when they happen so that the user gets a picture of the whole process a Window Manager is responsible of by just reading the source code. Implement multi-monitor correctly, that is by assigning each workspace to a virtual screen. Especially make sure that attaching and detaching new monitors like video projectors works during operation and do the right thing. Also, provide support for rotated monitors.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I've no doubt they added a Windows XP-theme to it, but I'd like the ability to choose Interface colors such as Red, School-Bus Orange, Yellow, Lime, Green, Turquoise, Windows-XP Blue, Blue-Violet, Violet(not synonymous with Purple), Pink, Vintage-Beige, Chocolate Brown, Carbon-Fiber Black, Windows-XP Silver & Copy-Paper White to apply.
  • Well, it's free, and the OS can run a lot of stuff, like the game Skyrim and Microsoft Office. I also managed to use it to print and to use photoshop.

Cons

  • The Alpha-stage email updates! Why don't more people with fatter wallets than mine pitch in so that ReactOS can reach Beta-stage already, it's already 2023 and I want a finished product THIS YEAR!
  • It's hard to set up a workgroup or a domestic network, but take this with a grain of salt since it's a work in progress. ReactOS is a work in progress and it's at the level of Windows Vista, maybe windows 7 at best, but it will be a long time before it can be as responsive as windows 10/11.
