Neon terminal banner: VIHAAN NATHAN, systems programmer, 14 — builds operating systems, kernels and emulators from scratch. C, x86-64 assembly, C++, Bash, no frameworks.

i'm vihaan — 14, systems programmer. i write the parts of computing most people never look at: kernels, syscalls, schedulers, signals, bootloaders, emulators. C and x86-64 assembly, from scratch, no frameworks.


Boot console: vihaan at github loads PureUNIX, AsterOS, the ppcosxkvm and maclator emulators, the Metal GPU bridge and the GNU/QEMU toolchain, then drops to a verbose run prompt



Stack matrix — languages: C, x86-64 assembly, C++, Bash, Make, JavaScript. Systems: kernel, memory management, scheduling, syscalls, signals, ELF, VFS, drivers, USB/xHCI. Emulation: QEMU, PowerPC, interpreter, JIT, AOT cache, Metal and OpenGL bridges. Toolchain: GNU, nasm, ld, GDB, Make, Git, OpenCore. Platforms: x86-64, arm64, PowerPC, Linux, macOS/XNU, legacy BIOS, UEFI.

project what it is
PureUNIX unix-like OS from scratch — kernel, VFS, process management, syscalls, signals, pipes, a BusyBox userland and a USB/xHCI stack, in C and x86 asm
AsterOS a Darwin/XNU-based operating system
maclator run arm64 macOS apps on intel macs — reverse-Rosetta: interpreter, x86-64 JIT, AOT cache, and a Metal bridge to the host GPU
ppcosxkvm PowerPC Mac OS X Tiger on apple silicon with an emulated ATI Radeon 9700 PRO — Quartz Extreme, Core Image and OpenGL through Metal
OptiPlex780-RX640-Hackintosh a legacy-BIOS Core 2 Duo box running macOS Monterey with full Metal acceleration via OpenCore/OpenDuet
SiMPLE-OS built from scratch because using an OS was too easy
