Original Text

Hello! I'm a student from Spain and I'm the creator of MesaOS, an open-source operating system written from scratch in Rust for x86_64.

I've been working on it mostly by myself.

MesaOS currently has:

A hybrid kernel Preemptive multitasking A Linux driver shim with 400+ exported kernel symbols (still in development) HDA audio and WAV streaming A shell with around 82 commands VFS, RamFS and persistent initrd File persistence through automatic folder-to-ISO injection SMP / multicore support xHCI / USB 3.0 support

It works on QEMU and on my HP 15s-eq2xxx laptop.

Some of the things I'm currently working on are USB storage, TCP, Wi-Fi and more hardware support.

Wi-Fi is one of the harder problems for me right now. My laptop uses a Realtek RTL8822CE, and there isn't much information available about it.

The project is still very much a work in progress, but I've reached a point where I would like to have other people working on it with me. I'm especially interested in people who like operating systems, kernels, drivers, networking, Rust or low-level programming.

I'm also transparent about using AI during development. The source code is generated using language models based on my instructions. I handle the architecture design, debugging, hardware testing and integration myself.

There is also an English/Spanish Discord server for the project if anyone wants to discuss development or contribute.
