Vinix

1 GoKawiil brief on this topic

New Vinix OS, built in V language, targets lightweight Mac gaming and daily use

A developer has released Vinix, an open-source operating system written in the V programming language, designed specifically for MacBooks as a leaner alternative to macOS. It runs in roughly 100 MB of RAM and 1 GB of storage, boots quickly, and includes no telemetry or online account requirements. The project is also working toward running Windows-only PC games on Apple Silicon hardware by combining Wine with an x86-to-ARM64 translation layer and an in-progress Apple GPU driver.
