A step-by-step tutorial that teaches how to build a minimal operating system kernel from scratch for the Raspberry Pi 3, modeled on the Linux kernel. Each lesson explains a kernel concept in the custom RPi OS and then shows how the same functionality is implemented in the real Linux kernel.

Use cases

  • learn operating system development from scratch
  • understand how the Linux kernel boots and initializes
  • write a bare-metal hello world on ARM64
  • study kernel scheduling, interrupts, and memory management with a minimal example
  • get started with ARMv8 assembly and low-level C
  • build a toy kernel for Raspberry Pi 3

When to choose

  • you want a guided, lesson-based introduction to OS development
  • you learn best by reading minimal source code alongside explanations
  • you have a Raspberry Pi 3 or want to follow along with QEMU

When to avoid

  • you need a production-ready or full-featured operating system
  • you target hardware other than Raspberry Pi 3 / ARMv8
  • you want a comprehensive Linux kernel development course rather than a simplified teaching kernel
