philosophy

Looks like people like terminal-centric and keyboard-driven interfaces. More usual expirience for UNIX users.

UNIX legacy was not so bad that it should be so easily abandoned.

If you don’t like it - just not use it.

This is attempt to re-create a development environment where:

• No mouse needed
• Apps could be expandable
• CUA - one love

The project will adhere to the key ideas of UNIX:

• Every program does one thing and does it well
• Text-based interfaces prevail over graphical ones
• Composition via pipelines instead of monolithic applications
• Simplicity of implementation is more important than functional redundancy

◈ key goals

• Reincarnation of terminal-centric interface for Plan 9
• Integration with modern systems via plan9port
• Educational resource on the history of operating systems
• Minimalistic alternative to modern tools
