This is my first OS, made because I just needed one with multitasking windows!
Install it with this:

pastebin run zAVRSFh3
Spoiler
Or this:
Features:
  • Windows!
  • hold left ctrl and drag on the sides of windows to resize them
  • Multitasking
  • Menu bar
  • Program start bar
  • Clock
  • In the future maybe your suggestion?
This is in Beta, and I am only putting this on the forum because I want feedback. Make a github issue or just post suggestions here.

Behind the scenes:
This OS is based on processes. There is a list of them, and they get updated in a loop.

This OS has a really cool GUI :D/>, however I found some issues regarding the multitasking. When multiple windows are open that require text input, the text input gets distributed to all of the windows, which makes having multiple shells open at the same time not possible. When I try to move overlapping windows, it moves them both, too, and if multiple paint programs overlap, you can draw to all of them at the same time.
