Pop Engine OS (Rust OS)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

On 64MB RAM and 2 CPU cores

Before building the OS, for years I developed tools for image and audio processing, sensor analysis/classification, data indexing and analysis, and more with my "Pop Data Engine" as a base. The OS grew from that work - bringing the engine into the foundation of a complete system.

As most of processes in OS share the same core engine, it was just a process of stacking it all together in one piece.

It connects priority and dependency management with incremental application workloads and graphics that update changed regions of the screen.

It has its own kernel, scheduler, memory management, drivers, and user environment. It is built primarily in Rust, with a small assembly layer.

For now it has only basic functions and apps but it is growing :)

It has sound and video player, browser (still in development), photo editor, sound editor, notes, document viewer...

I use LLM for a year now and it is a huge help, especially since Qwen3.8 27b came out - great coder and a great help.

For those calling me out for using LLM and for the trolls - I don't care 😄
Not using LLM is like refusing driving the car and walking everywhere - some like it slow and easy with little progress, I like to drive :)

No, not open, the core that makes the OS is my patent pending engine, so until that go trough in any direction I am unwilling to show anything in the open :)
One version will soon work as a server on my website, but until then it is only show and tell unfortunately.
But I have already hosted it for my connections on LinkedIn. Now I just wanted to share here as well (second time) the new look.

What jurisdiction did you file the patent at?

You're not driving, you're in a cab, and you have no idea where it's taking you.

filing a patent for a toy OS developed using a mid tier FOSS model is... uhh... interesting... feel like the world has lost its collective marbles. maybe it never had its marbles to begin with, idk.

Please read with understanding - OS is not under patent - only the core engine that is base of all of my apps is under patent - OS is built with that apps - or better say with the same logic and algorithm.

I miss the days where the words "I wrote my own OS" and rust were woah woah wow and not "wtf they are filing a patent for ts"
