OS-Studio

A web-based and native desktop Integrated Development Environment (IDE) tailored for OS Development.

Features

• Project Workspaces: Select any directory to act as your OS source root.
• Advanced Code Editor: Syntax highlighting, file management, and quick navigation.
• Integrated Terminal: Fully-featured terminal with bash/PTY support right in the browser.
• QEMU Virtualization UI: Configure and launch QEMU for various architectures (x86_64, i386, aarch64), configure RAM, enable KVM, and specify .iso or .bin paths effortlessly.
• Dependency Manager: Check and install necessary OS dev toolchains (like nasm, gcc, qemu, make, grub) directly from the settings with support for apt, brew, pacman, dnf, and choco.
• Command Palette: Quick actions (Ctrl+Shift+P) for building, cleaning, and testing your kernel.
• Native Launcher: A lightweight C++ Qt6 wrapper to run the studio as a standalone desktop application.
