Automated excerpt
I'd like to share BoringOS, an independent x86_64 desktop operating system written primarily in C. The project is developing its own kernel, userspace, filesystem functionality, USB/xHCI and HID support, process/task architecture, and a native desktop environment called BoringWM. Which subsystem would you be most interested in contributing to or seeing developed further—kernel architecture, filesystems, USB support, process management, or the desktop environment?
