Hello Frank.
Thanks for the materials.

I took a look at cfenollosa/os-tutorial github repo. I figured you're writing this series in a much more explained manner than the cfenollosa repo. Is that right ?

And Do you continue this series till making a real (even small) os ?

The OS Tutorial is a great foundation, especially because it contains working code. The main goal for my blog posts is to make sure that I understand what I'm doing and not just copy pasting the code. I also deviate a bit here and there based on my own preference.

You can check the additional resources section in the README.md to see the main resources I am using.

And Do you continue this series till making a real (even small) os ?

The goal is to do that, yes. However I do not know where my journey is going to go and how long I am enjoying it. I will certainly stop at some point but not sure when. For sure I want to have a working shell but I don't know if I am going to write a filesystem :D
