HNX Core OS

HNX (Hi that not Unix) is a multi-architecture microkernel operating system written in Rust, inspired by Zircon. This project is focused on building a minimalistic, yet feature-rich operating system that can run on modern hardware architectures. HNX Core OS is based on HNX kernel and is an open source OS and available under the MIT License.

Features

• Multi-architecture support (AArch64)
• Microkernel design
• User space support with independent ELF loading
• Simple scheduler with round-robin scheduling
• System call interface
• Console framework with PL011 UART driver

Status

Current Development
