![]() it returns very little to no "instant gratification" Not all "make it" in this field, many don't even pass the "Hello World" of OS developmentĭeveloping an operating system is probably one of the most challenging things you can do on a computer There is an entire Wiki for this at OSDev but the issue is not that it is not well documented, but OSDev itself states the following quotes: It also can do much more than a simple desktop switch, given a little time and effort. There are tools like the Ubuntu Budgie ISO-Builder, used by Ubuntu Cinnamon, Ubuntu Deepin, and Ubuntu Lumina. While some might be usable now, they might not be in the future. Many seem to be either inactive (like Systemback or Remastersys), halfway dead (like Linux Respin), or active but not well working or documented (like Linux-Live). The issue is that there are no "good" active tools. This isn't to avoid stolen data, that is not difficult to get around. ![]() Let's say you have Ubuntu 20.04 and are running that to read this, that is a live-system. A live-system is one that is currently installed. If you want a challenge, work with an OS not currently active, you can find many at ArchiveOS.ĭoing this, I would recommend not using a live-system. This means to take an already existing OS (active or not), like Ubuntu, Debian, Arch, Void, FreeBSD, BeOS, and using that to get your OS off the ground. Books like Linux From Scratch will also be an amazing beginner's guide to the craft. I recommend doing Linux as a base, as it is popular and easy working. Well, remember, a base is just the Kernel, everything else you do by your self. So for the sake of making everything nice and easy, as well as fair and powerful, open-source (of any license) will be our license type of choice. ![]() Often this is a form of GPL-v2.ĭoing closed-source development will not only require a harder development, but you will also need to find teammates who can work within your budget, without community support. Closed-source paid operating systems are going to be difficult to distribute and maintain as you agreed to work alone from Source as most derivatives you will be able to use will often require the same license or rarely choice with a similar license. The rest of this article takes in a lot of FOSS and open-source.
