Hi all. This project isn&#x27;t really _ready_ yet, but I&#x27;m happy to answer questions.<p>I actually wrote some more stuff yesterday, but since it&#x27;s on HN... just deployed it anyway. I was on a long bus ride home from my parents&#x27; house, and didn&#x27;t have any internet, so there&#x27;s a bunch of notes to fill things out and double check stuff... I have some stuff to do today, but am hoping to clean that up by tonight.<p>Here&#x27;s a sort of synopsis: there&#x27;s been a lot of really great stuff going on in the Rust OSDev space lately, and I managed to get my own little OS going, with a VGA driver and keyboard input. You can see that source here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;intermezzOS&#x2F;kernel&#x2F;tree&#x2F;original_backup" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;intermezzOS&#x2F;kernel&#x2F;tree&#x2F;original_backup</a><p>But then I realized that one of the reasons I&#x27;ve struggled a lot here in the past was the lack of tutorials. And I love writing. Christmas three years ago was when I discovered Rust, started writing about it, and is why I have the job I do today. So I decided this break that I&#x27;d embark on another project...<p>I really, truly think that many high-level programmers could do operating systems development if there were more resources that catered to them. Hence this project. Once it&#x27;s got some polish, I hope that someone who has learned programming through JavaScript can follow along and have their own little OS too.

Reminds me a lot of Philipp Oppermann&#x27;s Writing an OS in Rust (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;os.phil-opp.com&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;os.phil-opp.com&#x2F;</a>)

Great idea. I read the beginning and it was well written and very encouraging. Keep it up!
