This project is an educational resource for developing bare-metal operating systems and kernels from scratch on Raspberry Pi hardware. It provides a structured guide to systems programming using the Rust language, focusing on the implementation of core kernel components that execute directly on ARM-based hardware without the support of an underlying operating system or standard library.
The tutorials emphasize a modular architecture that separates hardware-independent kernel logic from processor-specific and board-specific configurations. By utilizing a hardware abstraction layer and distinct namespaces for device drivers and memory maps, the project demonstrates how to maintain clean code separation while interfacing directly with system registers and peripherals.
The material covers the fundamental requirements for bare-metal development, including the creation of entry points for system initialization, static linking of kernel binaries, and the direct mapping of physical memory. These guides are designed to assist in the construction of custom firmware and operating system subsystems through low-level programming techniques.
