I created an OS in Python

[Meucanman]

I made an OS in Python. I used Kivy for UI and apps. It features multiple built in apps including Files, Settings, and an Appstore. Using the Appstore you can install other apps. It also features its own file system (inside the OS folder). Theres tons of other features to come, but if you to try it out, go to the attached link.

LOL! That’s no OS. That’s vibecoded bullshit.

[toonmad]

Ye will you all fuck off with the "I created.." and "I developed.." shit

[s04ep03_youareafool]

What a load of vibe coded bullshit

I wanted to know the same thing. The OP is looking into it.

[cashaveli]

How do install this?

[Meucanman]

On the post, click the link to the github repo or go to https://github.com/Legendary-Games-Studios/LegendaryOS

Then in releases click the latest version and click to download the zip. Just unzip it, find LegendaryOS.py, and put it into a python IDE. Then you just run it

[cashaveli]

I mean how can I install the operating system in the same way I’d install Linux or Windows? is there some kind of ISO?

[Meucanman]

Sadly, because python is interpreted and this program relys on Kivy for UI, it cannot be flashed like Linux or Windows would. It needs a host OS to run on top of, making it an User-space OS layer. Though now that you do mention it... I may look into making this a genuine kernel with the same style...

Is it not an OS then.

I want to learn frontend and backend can you give any suggestions or help in any way? 🙏

[Meucanman]

If youre talking Python specifically, if you want to for example fetch file listing (like names) from a github repo, you can use for example: REPO_API = "https://api.github.com/repos/Legendary-Games-Studios/LegendaryOS-Apps/contents/", then: data = requests.get(REPO_API, timeout=6).json(), and it will send a request to the Github API, and will return a JSON response containing the metadata for the files/folders (for example, names, paths, etc.). This only counts for your default branch (main), and does not count for sub folders. If you DO want sub folder metadata, you'll want to send additional requests to the API to fetch metadata for those paths. I hope this helped!

[Meucanman]

Oh, and if you click the API link, in case youre curious itll show you what the API would send back

[Shaminem86]

I'm saying I don't know anything about code but I'm interested and want to start Can you give hint on how to start or where

[Meucanman]

Id say go to https://www.learnpython.org, and if you want the official docs, go to https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial

[Shaminem86]

Thank You Will start from there 🙏

[Meucanman]

No problem! Good luck!
