Introducing Banan-OS: An all new OS written from scratch in C++

[Redaktion]

Over the past two years, developer Banaymous has been slowly putting together a UNIX-like OS that is written almost entirely in C++. The OS even supports x86_64 and i686 architectures.

Not really. Some competition is always healthy.

"The GUI is especially impressive as it features a terminal and a basic status bar"

Really?! Those are the two GUI features that dazzled you the most?! I gotta say, I'm not especially impressed. :(

What's your point in asking that question? The guy wrote a fucking operating system from scratch, coded it himself in C++. Please, tell us what you have done that is so impressive and special lol.

But then it wouldn't be a new OS, just another linux distro amongst dozens of other ones.
