# Serenity
|
|
|
|
Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.
|
|
|
|
## About
|
|
|
|
I always wondered what it would be like to write my own operating system, but I never took it seriously. Until now.
|
|
|
|
I've grown tired of cutesy and condescending software that doesn't take itself or the user seriously. This is my effort to bring back the feeling of computing I once knew.
|
|
|
|
Roughly speaking, the goal here is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s \*nix. This is a system by me, for me, based on the things I like.
|
|
|
|
I regularly post raw development videos on [my YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3ts8coMP645hZw9JSD3pqQ).
|
|
|
|
There's also a [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/serenityos) if you would like to show some support that way.
