The first gui on my OS (D.eSystem 6.0.6 alpha) (lemmy.world)

Hello everyone!!

D.eSystem 6.0.6 alpha introduces the first GUI for my operating system D.eSystem 6.

The system is currently keyboard‑only, but mouse support is planned for future versions.

The usage is similar to D.eSystem 6.0.5, but now with a graphical interface, and the calculator also received a GUI version.

Requirements:

64‑bit CPU

UEFI firmware (Legacy BIOS is not supported)

D.eSystem 6.0.6 alpha runs on any VM (QEMU, VirtualBox, VMware) and on real hardware.

Download D.eSystem 6.0.6 alpha here: https://github.com/D-electronics-scratch/D.eSystem-6.0.6-alpha-iso-download

What’s in a name, but seriously what does the name mean?

Were there 5 before this 6th?

Is this coded with AI?

3 commits, no history :|

The 5 before that were simulations and OS prototypes,here is D.eSystem 5+ 8better version of 5) :https://github.com/D-electronics-scratch/D.eSystem-5- D.eSystem 4 was written in Python : https://github.com/D-electronics-scratch/D.eSystem-4 D.eSystem 3: https://www.programiz.com/online-compiler/16VmXW6XRomqk D.eSystem 2: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1280152791 D.eSystem 1: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1273773180 .

D.eSystem 6 was coded by myself,I used AI mostly for non code tasks like talking about D.eSystem,or talking about the roadmap, and sometimes I used AI for debuging.

So out of curiosity, why does this OS exist? I mean, it doesn't really need a reason of course, but is there anything planned to make it stand out from existing ones? For example, will it be exclusively me for RISC-V hardware? Maybe be some kind of high security OS? Something extremely lightweight that can run basic everyday tasks and run on very low specs, akin to improved Chromebooks?

It exits because I want to write a OS,and I also have a big roadmap,D.e will foucus on real us8ng on real hardware. And in future its also meant for daily tasks
