What is Aero?

Aero is a new modern, experimental, UNIX-like operating system made in rust following the monolithic kernel design. Supporting modern PC features such as long mode, 5-level paging, and SMP (multicore), to name a few.

What can it run?

Since the last update post for Aero (https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/ytrpss/aero\_a\_new\_modern\_os\_made\_in\_rust\_and\_is\_now\_able/), it has successfully ported Alacritty, Links, mesa-demos, GIT and many more programs and libraries (including GTK+-3)!

Goals

• Creating a modern, safe, beautiful and fast operating system.
• Targeting modern 64-bit architectures and CPU features.
• Good source-level compatibility with Linux so we can port programs over easily.
• Making a usable OS which can run on real hardware, not just on emulators or virtual machines.

Upcoming ;)

• Port of WebKitGTK
• Routing Sockets (https://github.com/Andy-Python-Programmer/aero/issues/95)
• ...and much more!!!
