Description
Chromium OS is an open-source initiative focused on creating an operating system that offers a quick, user-friendly, and secure experience tailored for individuals who primarily engage with the internet. Users can access the project's design documentation, download the source code, and participate in its development. Rather than being merely a browser, we envision Chromium as a web-centric tabbed window manager or shell. We strive to keep our user interface clean, similarly to how we would hope that major companies like Apple and Microsoft would refrain from cluttering the standard window frames of their applications. In this model, tabs serve as the functional equivalent of a title bar in desktop applications, while the tabbed interface itself acts as a practical tool for organizing groups of applications. Looking ahead, there is potential for the introduction of alternative tab types that may not feature the traditional browser toolbar, further enhancing user customization and experience. This evolution of the interface reflects our commitment to adapting to user needs and preferences as they continue to change.

OmniOS is an open-source server operating system designed to include only essential features. Its native file system, ZFS, integrates a volume manager with robust data integrity protections. You can effortlessly share volumes using protocols like iSCSI, CIFS, and NFS. Additionally, OmniOS allows the execution of lightweight virtual machines running either OmniOS or Linux in containers, eliminating the traditional hypervisor's overhead while ensuring complete resource management. For those needing full hardware virtualization, it supports bhyve and KVM, allowing the operation of various guest systems including Microsoft Windows and FreeBSD. Network infrastructure can be virtualized through Crossbow, which offers virtual interfaces and switches, plus the option to allocate dedicated resources for specific applications. DTrace serves as a powerful dynamic tracing framework to facilitate troubleshooting across the software stack, enabling real-time instrumentation whenever needed. As an open-source project, OmniOS is self-hosting and its development is actively managed on GitHub, where contributors can submit pull requests, and anyone interested can access the source code to compile their own version of OmniOS. This environment fosters community involvement and transparency in the development process.
