TempleOS is a free, public-domain, 64-bit hobby operating system written by Terry A. Davis, featuring its own HolyC language, compiler, and graphics shell. This repository is a final snapshot/mirror of the complete operating system source, preserved after the author's passing.

Use cases

  • explore a complete from-scratch operating system codebase
  • learn how a 64-bit bare-metal OS with its own compiler works
  • run a self-contained OS with its own HolyC programming language in a VM
  • study a single-arch, ring-0-only OS design with no security boundaries
  • preserve and research the work of Terry A. Davis

When to choose

  • you want to read or study the full source of a complete hobby operating system
  • you need the canonical public-domain TempleOS snapshot for archival or research
  • you want to experiment with HolyC and TempleOS's built-in compiler and graphics in a VM

When to avoid

  • you need a production, secure, or maintained operating system
  • you expect driver support, networking, or multi-user security
  • you want an actively developed project with community support or a license file
