Redox is a Unix-like microkernel operating system written in the programming language Rust, which has a focus on safety, stability, and performance.[4][5][6] Redox aims to be secure, usable, and free. Redox is inspired by prior kernels and operating systems, such as SeL4, MINIX, Plan 9, and BSD. It is free and open-source software distributed under an MIT License.

Redox gets its name from the reduction-oxidation reactions in chemistry; one redox reaction is the corrosion of iron, also called rust.

Transcription

Design

The Redox operating system is designed to be secure.[4] This is reflected in two design decisions:

  1. Using the programming language Rust for implementation
  2. Using a microkernel design, similar to MINIX

Components

Redox provides packages (memory allocator, file system, display manager, core utilities, etc.) that together make up a functional operating system. Redox relies on an ecosystem of software written in Rust by members of the project.

  • Redox kernel – derives from the concept of microkernels, with inspiration from MINIX
  • Ralloc – memory allocator
  • TFS file system – inspired by the ZFS file system
  • Ion shell – the underlying library for shells and command execution in Redox, and the default shell
  • pkgutils – package manager
  • Orbital windowing system – display and window manager, sets up the orbital: scheme, manages the display, and handles requests for window creation, redraws, and event polling
  • relibc – C standard library

Command-line applications

Redox supports command-line interface (CLI) programs, including:

  • Sodium – vi-like editor that provides syntax highlighting

Graphical applications

Redox supports graphical user interface (GUI) programs, including:

History

Redox was created by Jeremy Soller and was first published on 20 April 2015 on GitHub.[7] As of July 2021, the Redox repository had a total of 79 contributors.[8]
