  - libheap - A simple heap allocation library for hobby operating systems.
  - frigg - Lightweight C++ utilities and algorithms for system programming
  - lil - A lightweight Intel GPU library
  - mlibc - Portable C standard library
  - chadlibc - A simple C standard library. Very incomplete and currently isn’t recommended for use in your operating system.
  - libheap - A simple heap allocation library for hobby operating systems.
  - lil - A lightweight Intel GPU library
  - musl - A lightweight C standard library designed for Linux, but should work in other operating systems with some modifications.
- Operating Systems
  - SerenityOS - Graphical Unix-like operating system for x86 computers.
  - BRUTAL - An operating system inspired by brutalist design that combines the ideals of UNIX from the 1970s with modern technology and engineering
  - ToaruOS - A completely-from-scratch hobby operating system: bootloader, kernel, drivers, C library, and userspace including a composited graphical UI, dynamic linker, syntax-highlighting text editor, network stack, etc.
  - Managarm - Pragmatic microkernel-based OS with fully asynchronous I/O
  - Lyre - Lyre is an effort to write a modern, fast, and useful operating system.
  - μ - µ is a minimalist microkernel
  - opuntiaOS - An operating system targeting x86, ARMv7, and Aarch64

  - FlorenceOS - The Renaissance of Operating Systems
  - duckOS - A hobby UNIX-like OS with a graphical window manager for x86 computers.
  - nyx - A simple operating system with a capability-based microkernel.
  - Lemon OS - Lemon OS is a UNIX-like 64-bit operating system written in C++.
  - Skylight - A clean, well-written minimalist operating system designed to be used as an educational material for operating system development.
  - SnowflakeOS - "It is very special"
  - skiftOS - A hobby operating system built from scratch in modern C++. Featuring a reactive UI library and a strong emphasis on user experience. (skiftOS is currently being rewritten so a lot of things might not work)
  - nyx - A simple operating system with a capability-based microkernel.
