monax··on Brutal OS reached milestone 4
The idea is to take all the concepts we like about UNIX and iterate on them. It's UNIX as if it was invented now. For example, let's have a C compiler but let's add lambda and a more complete type system. Or let's have a shell, but let's have full ide like autocomplete to it. Or instead of plain text, let's use JSON

Author here,

skift was ported from C to C++, wich explain why most of the code is still "C-ish". The port was relatively easy thanks to the -Wc++-compat flags
