October 2016 newsletter

See what's new

We've got some new plans and ideas to tell you! Also, some changes are made

around the website.

The website

 

The website has a new, more modern look. Of course in the colours of FeatherCode.

Some pages are redone. We did change the website location to www.birdos2015.wix.com/feathercode, unfortunally still a free website.

We also got new social media! You can see new changes and other interesting stuff on Twitter and you can chat with me at Hipchat.

 

Small change of plans

This may be very technical

 

When I began on BirdOS, I used the Assembly programming language. Assembly is

one of the first programming languages and is still used for OS development. That has a reason though, you can't write a bootloader with any other language. When you write in Assembly you will find it's pretty anoying to write with, because you need to write 10 lines in Assembly for something you can write with 2 lines in C. In the last couple of years I wrote in Assembly (and I didn't get very far), this took a lot of time I could use for something else. So I changed to writing in C now, which is faster but somewhat slower when executing. You won't have any problems with it,  Windows and Linux are written in C as well.

 

I started over 7 times or so, but now I'm going to work as hard as I can to get it done in

2018/2019, although I hope it gets done a little bit earlier.

I'm excited to finish this project and I've got a team (of two people) for concept art for the UI.

Feel free to contact,

Thank you,
