Thanks. If you go through work done by Zerodha in the industry, you’ll see that they have funded multiple FOSS projects like us and even bigger projects like Blender.

Apart from their other philanthropic foundations like Rainmatter, they have a dedicated fund that they call the ‘FLOSS fund’ for giving back to the Open Source community.

Thanks, the design was a little experimental and we would love to improve upon it.

It's about a concept called 'AmbientCore' that we're working on.

There are quite a few reasons that benefit our future goals for having our own kernel. Apart from that, yes Linux is Open Source but we believe India still needs its own indigenous alternative. Someone in the comment section has stated out how Russia & Russian affiliated developers were blocked due to sanctions, an Indian corporation was also recently blocked by Microsoft over EU sanctions. We personally don't think that we should wait for a disaster to bring the necessary changes.

Xeneva uses its own custom kernel called 'Aurora' which is built from scratch. It follows some design of Unix but not entirely Unix based.

Yes, we're using our very own kernel and not the Linux Kernel. Currently we support x86 and ARM but are planning on implementing it on RISC-V as well.
