No, not ReactOS, I mean sort of uh, new thing that's basically what Linux is to Mach.
NewThing : Windows :: Linux : Mach 3

I know that, the goal is creating something that works the same way (not binary or backward compatible, just same architecture), and is ridiculously easy to port to from Windows.
The real main difference is that my OS is designed from the ground up for networking, security, administration, etc... more of a competitor to Windows Server and Linux Server than Windows desktop. It's more monolithic, as it merges things like csrss and winlogon into ntoskrnl.exe (except of course with different names, duh), as well as all security straight into the kernel. (Hence, killing the security also forces a shutdown of the system. There is no way around it.), while retaining other things in the kernel-space like networking server, windowing server, graphics and input control, drivers, stuff like that.
Except like Linux, 100% free, unlike Linux, not soul-binding and crushingly free. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FxYuKKsm6Zo
Focus on things like multi-user stuff, a Hyper-V clone, native support for both #### and ###### user Account Control actually requiring a ######### stuff like that, things that if Microsoft wanted to add to Windows they'd break soooooo many things.

| It's like you learned a couple words that sounded cool so you overtly asked an arbitrary & dumb question on a public forum and just listed every bit of jargon you knew. |

Exactly, that's what people do when they try to look smart. Happens all the time in the scripters forum. The OP knows nothing about OS design. |

| If he downbooted his databases to the global hyperflux drives (a key agent in the catalysis of his jigawatt storage banks) then maybe he'd sound smarter. |

"The OP knows nothing about OS design."
Hey, I built a toy UNIX clone in about 6 weeks just because. Nothing *that* impressive, pretty much just the absolute bare minimum you need to pass as "a complete OS" - CLI shell, couple commands, monolithic kernel, and some bippy boppity boop bop stuff to handle processes.
Given it was for an ARM virtual machine... never done x86(_64) before this, I've made one before.

This is a UEFI bootloader I'm working with, not a legacy BIOS one anymore because writing assembly is awful when you have no idea what you're doing.
I'm much more comfortable with C and C++ and higher level languages.
