Interesting, this is my first time seeing &quot;Gitee&quot;. It appears to be a Chinese clone of Github?<p>Looking at a random project, the interface pretty much a direct clone: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitee.com&#x2F;YanceSpring&#x2F;F-IM" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitee.com&#x2F;YanceSpring&#x2F;F-IM</a>

I assume they couldn&#x27;t use github because of the US sanctions? I also wonder how much open sourcing will help turn this OS into the Android killer that some had hyped and hoped it to be?

English documentation is here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitee.com&#x2F;openharmony&#x2F;docs&#x2F;tree&#x2F;master&#x2F;docs-en" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;gitee.com&#x2F;openharmony&#x2F;docs&#x2F;tree&#x2F;master&#x2F;docs-en</a>

Why is the description written like it&#x27;s authored by a marketing team for executives to read, neither of which would understand what&#x27;s being described?

Can this be deployed on an existing Huawei phone (say a P40)?

Previously on GitHub here <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Awesome-HarmonyOS&#x2F;HarmonyOS" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;Awesome-HarmonyOS&#x2F;HarmonyOS</a><p>Now probably means on their own gitee platform, so they don&#x27;t have to speak english all the time.

there are few alternative OSs already, they could have just promoted one of them, like <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lineageos.org" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;lineageos.org</a><p>nevertheless, the more competition to google the better.

I had a VERY quick glance at it and there doesn&#x27;t seem to be any USB support, is that also because of US sanctions or did I miss it ?

Did you mean &quot;Huawei&#x27;s rebranded (insert some long existing OS name here) is now open source&quot;?

I will not use a copycat service of github which is under control of the CCP.
