Quinn OS
Quinn OS is a 32bit Hobby OS for x86 computers. It’s a project I’ve played with on and off for the last 10 years. It is probably a good example of what not to do when writing an operating system and rather than being anything functional, it’s really just a playground.
It’s not a unix clone, though I do aim to have some posix compatibility, it’s also not a DOS/Windows clone.
