SerenityOS is a free and open source operating system project started by Andreas Kling.[1][2][3] It can be seen as a hobbyist operating system.
Features
It is a Unix-like operating system, which uses the GUI style from the 1990s.[1]
Reception
Jim Salter from Ars Technica considered the filesystem his least favorite feature of the operating system. Compared to TempleOS, it was more accessible.[1] For less technical users, Chicago95 or the Redmond Project has been recommended instead.[4]
