A from-scratch Unix-like desktop built as therapy and kept as craft — kernel, libc, GUI, and browser all written by the same community.

Created by Andreas Kling

Andreas Kling's SerenityOS (2018) is a from-scratch Unix-like OS written as therapy — a complete desktop, own kernel, own browser engine (Ladybird), own IDE, all C++.\n\nIt's the most ambitious hobbyist OS ever built — thousands of contributors, a working browser from first principles, and proof the 'just write it' approach still scales.
