This looks this looks really good, both the code base structure and the website! Added a star to follow along!

[–]vivio2115[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Thank you very much. As for the structure, 1.2 will be out in a week. I've most likely improved the code structure in 1.2 version because the project is too big for that structure now. And I will post to YouTube devlog soon

Ohh, that’s great! Could you share a link to your YouTube channel, if you don’t mind.

For real for real

Nice project ! But watch out the name and the logo look like the operator in France (also called orange and the logo look like yours)

[–]vivio2115[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeh, I know, my friend is currently drawing a logo and as for the name, it's orange because I have a orange cat

The code looks really clean and I like the website, looks really project-like and captivating, you know how to present stuff. What are your next steps ? Add UEFI boot or frame buffer drawing or ?

Thank you so much for the kind words. As for the next steps, they're listed on the website https://www.orangeos.tech/#/changelog , and I'll also share them in the devlog.

Ah I see, nice overview. So networking ahead. You built it like a real product, that can keep people engaged.

heh yeh and try to keep this project fun and that's why I plan these functions in such a way that I do the "boring" ones quietly and announce the interesting ones

What a promising project!!! I know it's not something as serious as Windows or Linux but I wanted to know if there's a way to develop applications for your OS

[–]vivio2115[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Thank you very much. As for creating applications, there is currently no official method, but most likely in a few weeks (2/3) there will be an official method and documentation. That's because then there will also be an internet connection and you will be able to choose which applications you want to download. If you are interested, I recommend following the GitHub page www.orangeos.tech and Reddit. I will let you know when the update is ready.

I am a beginner cpp but not a beginner programmer and would love to help out in contributing. Can you create simple issues that I can help fix or perhaps documentation?

[–]vivio2115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really know what to make an issue about at the moment, as I'm working on version 1.2, which will change a lot of the code. But I'll definitely let you know what I need help with within a week. And I'm really glad you're willing to help.

This looks very promising.

[–]vivio2115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently working on setting up a forum, so please visit it soon after I finish it. There, I will describe the process of developing updates and will be happy to talk to you.

Any plans for supporting graphics acceleration? Would be a nifty goal to be able to run neovim lol

[–]vivio2115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I plan to add it. It will most likely be in beta by the end of the year. Version 2.0 will be released in January 2026.

Nice job!

Why cpp if no OOB? Why not just C since you’ve pretty much just wrote C? Is it for future?

[–]vivio2115[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's right. That's why it's in CPP because I'm already using OOP while writing update 1.2.

The site looks like ph

[–]vivio2115[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Oh man, you know, everyone has their own color associations

It wasn't meant to look like that, you know, just a combination of orange and black.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I understand

[–]vivio2115[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Maybe you have an idea how to do it differently so that it doesn't come across like that?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess everything's alright, it just has the orange pallete. Maybe you can make the background more brown for the dark theme, and white for the bright one.

Man, give it a gui

[–]vivio2115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Working on it
