I like the UI, but I'm disappointed to find that the author is using orthodox C++ instead Modern C++
What do you mean by "orthodox C++"?
this is from bgfx
If you want a fleshed out demo [0], we had the author present at our conference recently. Worth a watch. [0] https://media.handmade-seattle.com/essence/
Wow. Just wow. I wish everything in my life was designed like this.
So first off: Very cool. Amazingly polished, and self-hosting! Especially since it looks to be an actually-independent project with POSIX as an optional compat layer. I feel like the features that are unique are mostly in 3 groups: 1. Features that shouldn't be unique to this system. Tabbed windows have occasionally happened on other systems, and probably should become more common, and there's no reason it shouldn't…
On Windows and Linux this is not difficult, I believe; the functionality is already present in things like https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/hand... and lsof.
Here’s to all the people who make their own operating systems. It’s great to see what a unified vision and some offbeat thinking can produce.
it's neat. there's like a whole indie os dev scene these days. kinda like when people used write os gui shell fanfiction, now they're writing their own novels with kernels from scratch and everything.
This is insane, I can't imagine how much work went into it. I had a similar idea as a kid, I was pissed at all the bloat consuming my cpu and ram on windows so I wanted to build my own os that would run a single app taking advantage of 100% of the hardware. I learned some assembly and managed to create a bootable floppy disk, then quickly gave up, realizing how much work a functioning os would take...
One guy pulled it off. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TempleOS

Its x86 only currently. I know the owner does want to add arm support but its not being worked on.
Curious, is porting complex C++ projects to arm64 just a matter of updating build/CI systems or does it actually involve changing core code and adding branches if (x64) {} ... if (arm64) {}.

What’s the state of the art for file systems in the age of M2 drives that are bonkers fast? I dunno about everyone else, but knowing hierarchically where my disk space is going is a really common concern.
