This repository contains the kernel, modules, and core userspace. Some third-party libraries and utilities are required to build a working system - these are automatically retrieved by the build process.
## IRC ##
For help building the kernel and userspace, join us in `#toaruos` on Freenode (`irc.freenode.net`).
## Features ##
## Kernel ##
The kernel provides a number of features one would expect from a Unix-inspired project, including process and thread support, ELF binary support, runtime-loaded modules, pipes and TTYs, a virtual file system including virtual `/proc` (inspired by Plan9 and Linux) and device files, EXT2 filesystem support, signals, and more.
## Userspace ##
The userspace provides a rich graphical environment with a composited window manager (built on Cairo), a terminal emulator (with support for xterm 256-color modes and Konsole 24-bit color modes, anti-aliased text using FreeType, and general support for some Unicode text), and other graphical demo applications.
