LimonOS new OS no Unix no Linux

1•DrMoris•1h ago
Wrote everything myself from scratch in pure C without any Linux or pre-built distros. It's a custom monolithic architecture with the Limine bootloader, custom drivers, window manager, and terminal.

As for models and agents: I used LLM agents as co-authors for routine tasks, writing tests, and debugging low-level code. I tuned them to strictly generate code without the standard library (libc) and to create host-side unit tests to verify modules before packing them into the kernel.

Did you use any AI for this? You are claming you built everything from scratch which is impressive. But if you didn't use AI , I would how much it time you took to build this. Also I saw your repo and it looks like you built it in a week so I doubt you did this without AI.

Regardless, please let us know what the X factor of this OS?

My university is proposing to offer shorter degrees. Others should follow suit
