FlingOS is an educational operating system and framework aimed at teaching students and developers how operating systems work, using C# and a bit of C++ and assembly. It allows developers to build kernels in a managed, high-level language and understand the entire bootstrapping and runtime process from scratch. FlingOS is particularly focused on making OS development more accessible by bridging the gap between high-level languages and low-level hardware programming.

Features

  • Written primarily in C# for accessible OS development
  • Custom compiler and toolchain support for kernel building
  • Detailed documentation and tutorials for learners
  • Bootloader and kernel written from scratch
  • Hardware abstraction for keyboard, screen, and timers
  • x86 architecture support with QEMU and VirtualBox testing
  • Preemptive multitasking and scheduling mechanisms
  • Basic FAT file system integration
