BRiX is a portable, open source operating system intended for use by anyone. It is not POSIX-compliant and is not based on Unix as are many other free software operating systems. BRiX is released under the Artistic License.

Technical features


* Minimalism.
* Easy-to-use, reconfigurable graphical interface as the primary user interface.
* Text-based interface to supplement the graphical interface.
* "Flat" filesystem that lacks the hierarchical structure of traditional filesystems, accessed and manipulated through the graphical user interface.
* Written in a compiled "safe-language" that doesn't rely on hardware to secure the system.

Status
