["Tifflin" Experimental Kernel]:https://github.com/thepowersgang/rust_os - [Redox]: Probably the most complete Rust OS today. It has an active community and over 1000 Github stars. File systems, network, an audio player, a picture viewer, and much more. Just take a look at the [screenshots][redox screenshots].
