The next-gen webOS and development environment with full Linux emulation.
An entirely local browser-based "OS" and development environment with complete graphical Linux emulation, visually based on ChromiumOS. See a demo here, fully in your browser.
[!WARNING]
Anura OS has only been extensively tested on Chromium and Safari. Although nearly everything should work on Firefox, you may run into problems with instability.
Anura uses the features of a PWA (Progressive Web App) to make its environment work fully offline, providing a virtual filesystem (synced with the Linux emulator), a code editor, and a modular and extensible app system. You can even edit Anura's code live while inside of it!
Anura shows as more of a proof-of-concept with what's possible on the modern web rather than an actual product. However, it proves useful in many actual cases and is a useful educational tool.
[!IMPORTANT]
Anura will not build on Windows. Please use a Linux VM or WSL.
bash codespace-basic-setup.sh
[!NOTE]
- If you are not in a codespace skip to the regular installation steps.
- This does NOT build RootFS.

(or any other C compiler)[!NOTE] You will have to install the required Rust toolchain by running
rustup target add wasm32-unknown-unknown
.

[!TIP] You can use

instead if you want to force a full build.
Docker

usermod -a -G docker $USER
You can run Anura with the command
make server
Or, run authenticated with
cd server
npm start -- --auth
Anura should now be running at localhost:8000
.
App development is highly encouraged! Good apps can even be added to the official workstore after review by an AnuraOS maintainer. Apps are stored in .app files which are read by AnuraOS to provide you, well, an app!
