First of all, thank you for this release.
It is fascinating to see the emphasis on working with a broad range of hardware and low level features like the file system. Contrast this with something like SerenityOS where they spend so much time on things like the web browser and where many contributors are working on things like fonts and dialog boxes.
This leads me to ask, “what are your goals and ambitions for Redox?”. How should I be thinking about it? Who should be using it today and tomorrow?
Some people have asked what is unique about Redox as if being an OS in Rust is not enough. That is not really what I am asking.
If I am allowed to ask another question, “what’s next?”.
- jackpot51 5y agoI would love to next work on the install process. Currently, there is only a very simple installer that I haven't mentioned much because it is really only good for replicating the VM image inside a VM. Improving this so it can be used to have permanent installs of Redox OS, and then improving rustc so those installs can build software for Redox OS (self-hosted), would accelerate development so we can take on bigger, higher level projects.
