KolibriOS: the Smallest OS in the world with GUI

KolibriOS is a lightweight, open-source operating system written entirely in assembly language (FASM). It is designed to be extremely fast and efficient, capable of running on very low-end hardware while still offering a graphical user interface (GUI).


Key Features:

Small Size: The entire OS, including a GUI, applications, and drivers, fits within just a few megabytes.

Fast Boot Time: It can boot almost instantly from a floppy disk, USB drive, or hard disk.

Low System Requirements: Runs on old PCs with as little as 8MB of RAM and an i586 processor.

Built-in Applications: Comes with a file manager, text editor, image viewer, media player, web browser, and even games.

Driver Support: Basic support for FAT12/16/32 file systems, some network cards, and a limited set of video and sound drivers.

Active Development: Though small, it has an active community of developers improving it.

KolibriOS is great for experimenting with low-level programming, running lightweight applications, or reviving old hardware. However, due to its limited hardware and software support, it's not a practical replacement for mainstream operating systems like Windows or Linux.
