Redox Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• The First Stable Release of a Rust-Rewrite Sudo Implementation

  A Linux distro is going to need to see compiler to self-host regardless of the user land. If you can live without Linux, there's redox ( https://redox-os.org/ ). - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Contributing to Open Source

  Redox is always open to contribution. Recently I've been helping with relibc, a mostly Rust libc. Source: 11 months ago

• How will HDR be implemented in COSMIC Rust?

  Well, considering the engineering team is managed by the same person that created Redox OS, then yes. I've personally been writing everything in Rust since Rust was still in alpha. Source: over 1 year ago

• Is Iced replacing GTK apps for the new COSMIC desktop?

  The people bringing you Pop!_OS also created https://redox-os.org, and the whole team writes software in Rust. Source: over 1 year ago

• Ask HN: What Linux did NOT do right?

  You probably already know this, but "a capability-based microkernel written in Rust" describes RedoxOS. http://redox-os.org/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What will you do with your jh7110?

  If I end up changing jobs and have more free time, maybe helping with the Redox port as well. Source: over 1 year ago

• So, I wanna switch from linux

  Ive heard good things about https://redox-os.org. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Learning Rust while rebuilding GNU CoreUtils!

  This is basically what the Redox OS is doing. Besides just the coreutils, they're doing an entire OS in Rust. It's still in a very early state, as you can imagine, but it already supports a GUI! Source: almost 2 years ago

• Fuchsia as an open OS

  So naturally, I have been following other approaches to OSing like RedoxOS and Fuchsia. Source: over 2 years ago

• Kerla: Monolithic kernel in Rust, aiming for Linux ABI compatibility

  Just in case you don't know about it: https://redox-os.org/ could be interesting to you :). - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Is it a good idea to write kernels and drivers in rust?

  I have no clue about kernel dev myself but there are some pretty great resources put there, like https://os.phil-opp.com/ (a full guide on how to write an OS in Rust) and https://redox-os.org/ (a working OS written in Rust). Source: over 2 years ago

• Rust for Linux Redux

  Another way is to sponsor and help to develop Redox OS[1] instead. It has a kernel completely written in idiomatic Rust. [1] https://redox-os.org/. - Source: Hacker News / almost 3 years ago

• RISC-V International to give away 1,000 RISC-V development boards

  I'm primarily interested in Rust development these days, and may attempt to port Redox to a RISC-V board that can currently run Linux. As long as it has some kind of storage and networking, that's all I'm interested in this year. Redox has a (simple) GUI, so as long as the board has a framebuffer, that should be possible too.

• Got an internship where I’ll be making a RTOS in Rust!

  Oh, it definitely is. Lots of people have made kernels in rust, most famously redox os https://redox-os.org. Source: about 3 years ago
