# Zen  [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/AndreaOrru/zen.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/AndreaOrru/zen) 

Experimental operating system written in [Zig](http://ziglang.org).

## Build and test

To build the kernel, simply type:

```

zig build

```

You can run and debug the kernel straight away with Qemu:

```

# Run the kernel inside the emulator.

zig build qemu

# Wait for a GDB connection first (for debugging).

zig build qemu-debug

gdb

```

You can also generate a bootable ISO and try it on Bochs (or on real hardware if you feel like it):

```

./iso.sh    # Generate run/zen.iso

./bochs.sh

```
