Latest compile run

LUM/MARINER attempts to aim to be a clone of XNU/Darwin written in Rust just without the Apple stuff. A kernel and Operating System.

Credits to phil-opp for the base code of this kernel.

Disclaimer

If you are looking for something that works and that you can use, this currently is not what you're looking for. Go use Aero by Andy-Python-Programmer instead. This still has a long way to go but I'm optimistic. If you're really bent on trying this, don't expect much. (Fun fact: Aero is another inspiration for me actually going ahead and trying to make this kernel and OS.)

What do I plan for this?

I plan for LUM/MARINER to become a Unix based kernel in Rust that is almost like a clone of XNU/Darwin to some degree. I plan on making this compatible with Linux/Unix applications and making the kernel modular to allow for easier modifications.

How do you build this?

Please refer to BUILD.md.

Why?

I've always found XNU and Darwin really interesting to me and I've always wanted to do stuff with it but due to the way XNU/Darwin is, you can't really do much. Therefore, LUM/MARINER sprung into existence. And well... because why not? It seemed like a fun idea.

What does LUM stand for?

"Like Unix... Maybe?"

What does MARINER stand for?

It's a reference to something. I may say it in the future.

Oh, and I should probably point out that I'm doing this for fun and learning, before anyone attempts to destroy me for this... I know some people will.
