Hello HN!
Showing off the first version of Munal OS, an experimental operating system I have been writing in Rust on and off for the past few years.
GitHub - Askannz/munal-os: An experimental operating system fully written in Rust, with a unikernel design, cooperative scheduling and a security model based on WASM sandboxing.
It's an unikernel design that is compiled as a single EFI binary and does not use virtual address spaces for process isolation. Instead, applications are compiled to WASM and run inside of an embedded WASM engine.
Other features:
Checkout the README for the technical breakdown.
