Neos Kernel

NT : New Technology was Kernel designed in Microsoft led by Dave Cutler, NT is the core of all modern Windows since Windows XP bringing unparalleled Stability and robustness which made Windows XP popular during early 2000s. 

Windows Server 2003 SP2 & Windows Server 2022 has been chosen as base for studying NT Architecture, Neos aims to provide lightweight system like Windows XP yet with features demanded by today's modern Hardware architecture. 

Neos isn't exactly NT , rather aims to be NT like. Popular result of this concept is Apple's Darwin or Linus Torvalds's Linux which are Unix Like Kernel but doesn't aim to be 1:1 replacement of Unix itself.

 Software Architecture will follow Indian Design philosophy " Prakratam - Racana" , which loosely translates to open composition/architecture.

Planned Timeline:  

NTOSKRNL / HAL :: April 2026
