   I worked on AurionOS locally, and pushed it to GitHub when it was finally ready.

   Thanks! Happy to share. Most helpful references: Intel Software Developer Manuals for understanding x86 architecture osdev.org wiki for the basics (GDT, IDT, memory management) Reading source code of other hobby OS projects to understand

   Fair point on toolchain complexity and portability, C's minimalism there is genuinely hard to beat. But it's a tradeoff: you're trading toolchain simplicity for the burden of manually ensuring memory safety. Depends on whethe

   Fair question! I understand the skepticism. The account is newer because I only recently started putting my projects on GitHub. I've been programming in C and Assembly for a while before that, just locally on my machine. The comm

    Thanks for the suggestion! I've heard great things about both Rust and Zig for systems programming. I started with C because most osdev resources and tutorials use C, and I wanted to understand manual memory management at the lowest le

    I wrote the core architecture and most of the code myself. I used Claude occasionally to help debug tricky issues and understand some concepts, but the design decisions and implementation are mine. I think AI is a great learning tool when y

    My general rule was: Assembly for anything that HAS to be assembly: bootloader, GDT/IDT setup, interrupt handlers, context switching, and port I/O wrappers. C for everything else: window manager, apps, drivers, GUI rendering. Some

    Thanks! The filesystem is currently pretty simple - a basic flat structure on the ATA drive. I was inspired by FAT-style simplicity since I needed something working quickly for the Notepad save/load feature. Planning to implement

    Great suggestions, thank you! virtio-net makes a lot of sense for VM testing - I'll look into implementing that alongside the RTL8139 driver. v86 is a really cool idea, having Aurion OS run in a browser would be amazing for demos. I

    Thanks! I'll definitely check out oshub.org, looks like a great resource.
