From Vision to Structure​

When we first introduced Open Nexus, it was only an idea — an alternative to fragmented ecosystems, built on Rust and a Redox microkernel.
Today, that idea has taken shape. The foundation of the project is no longer abstract; it is code, libraries, and a working environment.

• GitHub for visibility, GitLab for day-to-day development
• A clear project structure with modular components
• Scripts for initial-setup, build, and run — so contributors can get started quickly

From Orbital Fork to Open Nexus​

Why We’re Here​

Every major shift in computing began with a small group of people who believed that the status quo was not enough.
Today, that status quo is fragmentation: phones that don’t talk to desktops, ecosystems that trap you in silos, and platforms that put business models above users.

We believe this is the moment to change that.
And we’re building the system to prove it.

What Is Open Nexus?​

Open Nexus is a new operating system — written in Rust, built on a Redox microkernel, and designed from day one to be modular, adaptive, and secure.
One OS for many devices. A seamless single-device experience across an open ecosystem.

Not an Android skin. Not a fork of yesterday’s code.
A foundation for what comes next.

The Problem: Fragmented by Design​

For decades, computing has been divided into artificial categories:
a phone OS here, a desktop OS there, a watch or car system somewhere else.
Each locked into its own ecosystem. Each dependent on proprietary cloud sync.
Each forcing developers to rewrite the same ideas for different silos.

This isn’t just inconvenient.
It is a fundamental design flaw — a brake on progress.

The Vision: One OS. Many Devices​

Open Nexus is built to break these barriers.
A Rust-based microkernel (Redox foundation) with a modular architecture,
designed to adapt seamlessly from smartphones to workstations,
from IoT devices to automotive platforms.

Your workflow should not care where it runs.
Your data should not depend on third-party servers.
Your interface should not be bound to screen size.

One system. One experience. Across an open ecosystem.
