Hi nakst, your UI is really impressive! Do you have any pre-built release images I can try? I had trouble with your build tools the last time I tried to use them.
Sorry, there are no releases yet. The project is still too early in development. However, much of the build tools have been improved recently, so perhaps you could try again?

also, I noticed you moved to bitbucket but left your github repository with a notice as its HEAD - why not just push to both? I moved to Gitlab myself a few months ago but I still push to github as a mirror - the great thing about git is you can push to multiple remotes and keep them all in sync.
Two reasons: I don't know how git works, and I don't want my OS hosted on a service owned by Microsoft.

, I see you describe your OS as "completely from scratch" but your userspace seems to be based on Musl, freetype, and a number of stb libraries - that seems misleading to me (especially as someone who has made an effort to turn a "mostly-from-scratch" OS with similar third-party elements in its userspace into a completely-from-scratch OS with no third-party code).
For me, "from scratch" is more about design. The OS is not a Unix clone - unlike many others. I'm also trying to replace many outdated OS concepts and replace them with new ones, although few of these have been implemented yet.
But I'll be happy to admit the word "completely" is possibly exaggeration.
