Google is developing a new OS for All the Things -- Google悄悄开发的全新操作系统Fuchsia

in #cn8 years ago

Google is developing an OS called “Fuchsia,” runs on All the Things.

It could be argued that with Android and Chrome OS, Google already has more than its fair share of operating systems; but there's another one in the pipeline.

Very little is known about it at the moment, but Google has a new operating system project underway called Fuchsia. There's a GitHub page up and running, where you can find out about the Fuchsia kernel -- a kernel that is designed with scalability and multi-device, cross-platform compatibility in mind.

Based on the LittleKernel project, Fuchsia is not only on GitHub, but also Google Source. Google is giving away very little on either page, but the GitHub description reads: "Pink + Purple == Fuchsia (a new Operating System)". We might not know everything at this stage, but just what Fuchsia is going to be is pretty clear.

Google悄悄开发的全新操作系统Fuchsia

对于谷歌来说,不定时爆出个黑科技已经成为家常便饭。最近有人发现在Google的Github源码库出现了一种新的开源操作系统叫Fuchsia,目前暂不清楚该系统的具体应用,比较有趣的是,它不同与安卓使用的Linux内核,而是采用的比较新的Magenta的内核。

这个“悄悄”的开发的操作系统,名字叫“Fuchsia”。Google在Fuchsia的GitHub主页上这样介绍Fuchsia:“Pink+Purple==Fuchsia(anewOperatingSystem)”。

由于该项目的贡献者有Travis Geiselbrecht和Brian Swetland,这两人是Android系统的主力开发者,而Dart,Flutter又来自Chrome团队,加之其可以同时支持ARM和x86芯片架构及业内一直盛传的谷歌打算在2017年统一Android和Chrome OS,所以多数分析认为Fuchsia的目的就是打通PC和手机,甚至是未来IoT的谷歌的融合操作系统。

Fuchsia已经公开托管在GitHub上:

而且在Googlesource也有主页:

Fuchsia主页所能获取的信息有限,但是这完全不能满足我们的好奇心。有足够的技术背景,想试试看的话,现在就可以抓下来到虚拟机器上试试看了。
