Projects
This page maintains a list of academic, personal, and small non-commercial operating systems. For information regarding commercial or mainstream operating systems, please visit Wikipedia.
OSes have a high mortality rate: between 2004 and 2006, 112 of 213 OS Projects disappeared from the Internet. And looking at how often these projects are started by using the OS Project Announcement forum, in that same time period 68 projects were announced! The current total is 175 projects, but just 58 of them are active (as of January 1, 2018) and only 62 have been updated at least once since 2018 (three of which have been since abandoned), and 27 since 2019. Please help keep this list current by correcting it if you see any outdated information.
OSes without an update since 2015 are now located at Abandoned Projects.
More mature hobby operating systems can also be found at Notable Projects.
Particularly advanced and successful operating systems are listed at Advanced Projects.

 Acess2Acess2 is a kernel and operating system designed to do what Linux does, be customizable to any given situation. However, unlike Linux, it there is no need to maintain backwards compatibility with anything. It features a simple but extensible VFS that currently supports VFAT and Ext2, IPv4/IPv6 networking with TCP/UDP, USB input, and storage. Recently, this project has been moved to GitHub, but its old git repo—with outdated sources and some useful documentation—can be found here: http://git.mutabah.net/?p=acess2.git;a=summary . v0.14 outdated floppy image is available at its' old page: username - root, password is blank. Could try building a new floppy from the latest sources by yourself! (some software rot has been noticed but its fixable) |

BlueKernelThe BlueKernel is a simple microkernel design intended for students. It has pre-emptive multitasking with threads, message-passing and virtual memory. It is currently targeted for the IA-32 processors, but the design is strictly separated into a hardware-dependent mechanisms layer, with an independent policy layer on top of that. It has its own basic boot loader that loads the kernel and a disk driver. It also has a basic text-mode display driver and keyboard driver. As with most microkernels, the drivers run in user space and help to demonstrate message passing and interrupts. When the system starts it loads a server that allows the user to load their own processes. There are very simple example user programs to demonstrate threads, message-passing and interrupts. The website is written like a textbook to explain how it all works, focusing on the implementation rather than theory. |

MentOS aims to have the same Linux's data structures and algorithms. It has a well-documented source code, and you can compile it on your laptop in a few seconds! |
|
MenuetOSMenuetOS is a fully 32 bit assembly written graphical operating system. Menuet supports 32 bit x86 assembly programming as a faster and smaller system footprint. Menuet has no unix roots and the basic system is meant to be a clean asm based structure. Menuet isn't based in any particular operating system, since the idea has been to remove the extra layers between different parts of software, which complicate programming and create bugs. Menuet's application structure is not specifically reserved for asm programming since the header can be produced with practically any other language. However, the overall application programming design is intended for easy 32 bit asm programming. The GUI is extremely easy to handle with assembly language |

Oberon SystemThe Oberon System is an academic operating system and an integrated software environment developed by Niklaus Wirth and Jürg Gutknecht since 1980s at ETH in Zürich. Currently it is a single-user, multi-core, multi-tasking system that runs on bare hardware or on top of a host operating system (currently Microsoft Windows or Linux). The developers aim at producing a reliable, real-time operating system suitable for embedded systems and for industrial and in particular medical applications. Earlier it was called "Aos" (Active Object System), a nomenclature that is still in use. It is written in the Active Oberon programming language, which evolved from Oberon, a programming language in the Pascal/Modula tradition. The graphical user interface is referred to as “Bluebottle”.

Note that some stuff on these pages appear outdated, but this may be more a problem of keeping the Web-pages as current as the System. More current and in depth documentation is included in the systems, although you (sorrily) have to master their (partially) unconventional user-interface before you can access the documentation. Many dead links in Native Oberon reference site can be reanimated by replacing www with www-old. It has been revitalized in fall 2013 by Niklaus Wirth implementing a RISC processor in FPGA.

OSOS for x86 with the goal to provide a complex system basics implemented with a maximum delay of 1 year (virtual memory, file systems, emulation, GUI, multitasking, clean-up of general information, drivers from other OSes, USB, SATA), and general study written in NASM, C and miscellaneous language snippets gathered from the usual PC demo code repositories, books, and study of professional programs. It aims at easily building a custom OS-like DOS application manually, simple or with all the available protection and system features, to study the implementation of the different system-level tasks. It contains simple 386 malloc/free functionality for paging, simple FAT32 LBA support for displaying files and folders with a simple fopen/readdir/Read_Disk/Read_Disk_DWORD for clusters, and several functions for handling VGA, PS/2, PIT timer, ATA-ATAPI. It boots from DOS and can return to it with the exittodos command, even under the newest laptops. Contains documentation in Spanish and English. Decompress the TAR to the root directory. c:\start.bat launches it. Has miniprograms that can be invoked as commands with arguments, and has fail-proof ATA-ATAPI detection (only primary master enabled by now). In 2021 it will add a basic emulator for being able to call things like video modes natively derived from the BIOS and to access the memory map from the kernel. |

PDOS - Public Domain Operating SystemOne of very few operating systems that have an explicit "released to the public domain" notice. What that means is that if you spend time on this, and you later see a commercial use for it, there is absolutely no restriction on selling/modifying etc, any more than you would dig up Shakespeare and ask him if it's OK to use "Hamlet". It is designed to look like MSDOS, and the 8086 version can currently execute some MSDOS executables unchanged, the 80386 version can currently execute some Win32 executables (including gccwin - a modified GCC 3.2.3 for Windows msvcrt.dll) unchanged, and the S/3X0 version can currently execute some MVS executables unchanged (and on real IBM mainframe z/Arch hardware executes S/370 in effective AMODE 32 giving access to 4 GiB of memory), and the x64 UEFI version can execute some Win64 executables unchanged, including a completely public domain completely-self-hosting environment. It's written in C90, with some assembler. The public domain C compiler included (only) in the x64 version has a small amount of (included) C99 dependency. There is also a native ARM32 version. |
