# VulcanOS  ![](https://github.com/ceticamarco/vulcanos/actions/workflows/vulcanos.yml/badge.svg)

**VulcanOS** is a x86 monolithic kernel written in C from scratch following the UNIX philosophy. This project is just a student learning tool to know more about operating systems, do not expect nothing more than a toy.
