Redox is a Unix-like microkernel operating system written in the programming language Rust, which has a strong focus on safety, stability, and high performance. Redox aims to be secure, usable, and free. Redox is inspired by prior kernels and operating systems, such as SeL4, MINIX, Plan 9, and BSD. Click the repository.exodusredux zip file.

Redox is a Unix-likemicrokerneloperating system written in the programming language Rust, which has a strong focus on safety, stability, and high performance.[4][5][6] Redox aims to be secure, usable, and free. Redox is inspired by prior kernels and operating systems, such as SeL4, MINIX, Plan 9, and BSD. It is similar to GNU and BSD, but is written in a memory-safe language.[7] It is free and open-source software distributed under an MIT License.
Design[edit]
The Redox operating system is designed to be highly secure.[4] This is reflected in two main design decisions:
- Using the programming language Rust for implementation
- Using a microkernel design, similar to MINIX
Redux (atticusfinn) Mac Os X
Components[edit]
Redox is a full-featured operating system, providing packages (memory allocator, file system, display manager, core utilities, etc.) that together make up a functional operating system. Redox relies on an ecosystem of software written in Rust by members of the project.
Redux (atticusfinn) Mac Os Catalina
- Redox kernel – largely derives from the concept of microkernels, with heavy inspiration from MINIX
- Ralloc – memory allocator
- TFS file system – inspired by the ZFSfile system
- Ion shell – the underlying library for shells and command execution in Redox, and the default shell
- pkgutils – package manager
- Orbital windowing system – display and window manager, sets up the orbital: scheme, manages the display, and handles requests for window creation, redraws, and event polling
- relibc – C standard library
Command-line applications[edit]
Redox supports command-line interface (CLI) programs, including:
- Sodium – vi-like editor that provides syntax highlighting
- Rusthello – advanced ReversiAI; is highly concurrent, serving as proof of Redox's multithreading abilities; supports various AI strategies, such as brute forcing, minimax, local optimizations, and hybrid AIs
Graphical applications[edit]
Redox supports graphical user interface (GUI) programs, including:
- NetSurf – a lightweight web browser which uses its own layout engine
- Calculator – a software calculator which provides functions similar to the Windows Calculator program
- Editor – simple text editor, similar to Microsoft Notepad
- File Browser – a file manager that displays icons, names, sizes, and details for files; uses the launcher command to open files when they are clicked
- Image Viewer – Image viewer for simple file types
- Pixelcannon – 3D renderer, can be used to benchmark the Orbital desktop
- Orbterm – ANSI type terminal emulator
History[edit]
Redux (atticusfinn) Mac Os Update
Redox was created by Jeremy Soller and was first published on 20 April 2015 on GitHub.[8] Since then, it has been developed actively, with contributions by over 40 developers.[9] On the second anniversary of Redox appearing on GitHub, version 0.2.0 was released.
