The Open Source Multitasking Operating System (OSMOS) that aims to be fast, lightweight, and open-source for everyone

OSMOS

NOTICE of migration to GitLab

The OSMOS has now moved to GitLab because of GitHub being bought by Microsoft. We do not want our code to be used by this business house that is legitimately stolling our liberty with their « operating system » called « Windows 10 » which is the synonym of « data collector »; nor use this Git repository hosting platform with ads; nor being forced to use Microsoft's proprietary software or « open-source » Visual Studio Code (which is NOT open-source in reality if you didn't figure out yet). We will NOT come back to this Git hosting platform for theses reasons. If you want to see the current progress of The OSMOS/OSMOS development; visit-us at https://gitlab.com/Erelgine/OSMOS/. Every document on this project refering to GitHub terminology and links will be altered to instead use the GitLab terminology and links. We and I (Alexis BELMONTE) am very sorry for this inconvenience. Don't lose hope; develop your projects and creativity and most of all: don't ever get trapped by the business dooms. Thank you.
