I’m surprised to see no one mentioned Theseus OS. It’s a WIP OS built from scratch with Rust, using Rust compiler’s guarantees around memory safety for automatically providing many things which require careful plumbing in conventional OSes. As an example it’s SPL, SAS (single privilege level, single address space) and yet is secure. All parts of the OS are hot pluggable too. The drawback is that all native code needs to be Rust, though a WASM runtime is implemented last year. Related thread from 3 years ago:
