yes, not a unix os but rather unix-like, and i want to program all of it on python, is that possible?? even the kernel, i want it all python. i know most kernels use c++ or c* but maybe python has a library to turn c* into python?? i’m still sort of a beginner but thanks and i would appreciate the answers

    You could do some of it in Python, but some stuff needs low level access to registers, e.g. trap handlers and context switching.

    Should you do that? Absolutely fucking not. It would be hilariously slow and inefficient. Hundreds of times, maybe thousands of times slower than C/C++ kernels.
