## About
I always wondered what it would be like to write my own operating system, but I never took it seriously. Until now.
*I always wondered what it would be like to write my own operating system, but I never took it seriously. Until now.*
I've grown tired of cutesy and condescending software that doesn't take itself or the user seriously. This is my effort to bring back the feeling of computing I once knew.
Serenity is a love letter to '90s user interfaces, with a custom Unix-like core. It flatters with sincerity by stealing beautiful ideas from various other systems.
Roughly speaking, the goal here is a marriage between the aesthetic of late-1990s productivity software and the power-user accessibility of late-2000s \*nix. This is a system by me, for me, based on the things I like.

If you like some of the same things, you are welcome to join the project. It would be great to one day change the above to say "this is a system by us, for us, based on the things we like." :^)
I regularly post raw hacking sessions and demos on [my YouTube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3ts8coMP645hZw9JSD3pqQ).
There's also a [Patreon](https://www.patreon.com/serenityos) if you would like to show some support that way.

## How do I build and run this?
See the [step-by-step guide to building Serenity](https://github.com/awesomekling/serenity/blob/master/Meta/BuildInstructions.md)
Go into the Toolchain/ directory and run the **BuildIt.sh** script. Then source the **UseIt.sh** script to put the i686-pc-serenity toolchain in your $PATH.
Otherwise, see the older [step-by-step guide to building Serenity](https://github.com/awesomekling/serenity/blob/master/Meta/BuildInstructions.md)
