Project updates, architecture notes, and milestones.
How Open Nexus is developed — specification before code, host-tested libraries, reproducible QEMU runs, and validation as part of the design process.

In August, I ended with this sentence:
Then I want to get Open Nexus OS running on real RISC-V hardware, with real graphics hardware and real drivers.
That sentence was easy to write.
An operating system that only boots in an emulator is a promise. It becomes a serious project the day it runs on a board you can buy.
Open Nexus OS is no longer just a set of ideas, prototypes, or isolated implementation decisions.
It is becoming something more important: an architecture that can explain itself.
That is why we published this paper set.
Not to decorate the project with academic language.
Not to turn engineering into performance.
But to make the core decisions around NEURON, our Rust-based capability microkernel, explicit, citable, and reviewable.
