a cute lil operating system
being made by sam
i know there might be many questions in ur head rn
like...
- why a new os?
- why the name nirvana?
- any resources to help with osdev?
( if u have any more questions, tag and tweet me @aquaticcalf )
i will answer each of them below, one by one
why a new os?
well.. tbh, im just making this because im into os dev.
its just a fun lil project of mine, it has no motive to be thenextlinux™ or something.
im here just to have fun and explore operating system stuff.
and hopefully complete building my os.
why the name nirvana?
nirvana - free from suffering
if i ever made an operating system, thats how i want it to feel like.
free from suffering
and hence the name :)
any resources to help with osdev?
-
osdev.org wiki -> beautiful resource if you've ever wanted to delve into operating systems
-
minix -> this is what motivated to make my own os
-
a heavily commented linux kernel source code (pdf)
-
nachos
-
operating systems - three easy pieces (book)
-
and r/osdev ofc
