Redox OS is a UNIX-like, general-purpose, microkernel-based operating system written in Rust. The project's latest release, version 0.9.0, introduces COSMIC desktop applications, a custom web server, improved performance and stability, and the Nano text editor has been ported. "Key improvements for release 0.9.0: faster system calls and context switching; improved virtual and physical memory management, including the significantly faster p2buddy memory allocator; improved filesystem performance; self-hosting improvements; userspace ABI improvements towards the long-term goal of a stable ABI; VirtIO drivers for better performance in virtual machines; Virtualized TSC gives a massive boost to context switching speed in virtual machines; the UNIX path format replaced the previous URI format used in our system interfaces, improving compatibility with POSIX/Linux libraries and programs...." Additional information is provided in the release announcement. Redox is available in three editions: Demo, Desktop, and Server.

| About Redox OS
|
| Redox is a Unix-like, general-purpose, microkernel-based operating system written in Rust. Redox aims to bring the innovations of Rust to a modern microkernel. The project also provides a full set of custom programs and tries to be a complete alternative to Linux and BSD. Redox OS attempts to be source-compatible with Linux and the BSD family, making porting between operating systems easier. Redox is available in Server and Desktop editions, featuring components of the COSMIC desktop in the latter edition.
