I completely disagree. I am writing an OS in TypeScript. The GUI portion was complete with 15 days.
In JavaScript land people are scared shitless to write original software or learn the basic foundations of their common platforms. So yeah, that would make 10000000x more challenging. But that is a psychology and preparation problem, not a technology problem.
- pjmlp 3y agoInteresting, what is the approach to kernel / managed language layers?
- austin-cheney 3y agoThe application does not touch the metal. It executes as an application doing the top half of what the lower operating system does. The reason for the redundant pseudo-OS is that it operates the same across multiple devices irrespective of the metal and lower level OS. That means it provides a seamless connected experience between Windows, Linux, and OSX (I still need to test certificate installation in OSX) with end-to-end encryption for things like file system, sub-processes, media processing, file execution, and so forth.
- pjmlp 3y agoI see thanks, I was curious if was a kind of SELF like experience, with bare metal set of primitives, with possible JIT/GC infrastructure, and then the rest managed.
