Kernel

Bits and pieces of code that you can assemble to build a kernel for your machine.

These parts are made to be glued together in a single glue.asm file you write yourself.

This code is designed to be assembled by Collapse OS’ own [zasm][zasm].

Scope

Units in the kernel/ folder is about device driver, abstractions over them as well as the file system. Although a typical kernel boots to a shell, the code for that shell is not considered part of the kernel code (even if, most of the time, it's assembled in the same binary). Shells are considered userspace applications (which live in apps/).
