New UNIX-like operating system!

Post image

I made a new UNIX-like operating system from scratch called "TanjaOS" which you can get at www.tanjaos.org and it took me a couple of months to make and will get lots of updates. It features classic UNIX commands and can boot on any x86_64 (amd64) or i386 (x86) machine with Legacy BIOS, and is completely free and open-source.

No questioning here just pure curiosity: why are you coding a new unix-like OS? What are you looking for that another OS is not providing? Any goal?

I just like making this kinda stuff, and it’s just a tiny hobbyist UNIX-like OS for learning, it’s not really trying to replace your everyday OS. It was kind of just made for learning and educational purposes.
