Resea *[ríːseə]* is a microkernel-based operating system written from scratch.
It aims to provide an attractive developer experience and be *hackable*:
intuitive to understand the whole design, easy to customize the system, and fun
to extend the functionality.

See **[Documentation](https://resea.org/docs)** for more details.

Features
--------
- A **minimalistic and policy-free microkernel** based operating system written entirely from scratch in C (and less than 5000 LoC). *Everything is message passing!*
- Supports **x86_64** (with SMP) and **64-bit ARM** (Raspberry Pi 3).
- Includes userspace servers like **TCP/IP protocol stack** and **FAT file system driver**.
- Provides **easy-to-use APIs** and every components are written in **single-threaded event-driven** approarch. It makes really easy to understand how Resea works and debug your code.
- Some attractive experimental features like **Linux ABI emulation**, **Rust support**, and **Hardware-assisted Hypervisor (like Linux's KVM)**.

See **[Road Map](https://github.com/nuta/resea/projects/1)** for planned new features and improvements.
