Temple OS is a [funny](fun.md) [operating system](os.md) made by a [schizo](schizo.md) guy [Terry Davis](terry_davis.md) who has become a [meme](meme.md) and achieved legendary status for this creation in the [Internet](internet.md) tech circles as it's extremely impressive that a single man creates such a complex OS and also the OS features and the whole context of its creation are quite funny. It has a website at https://templeos.org.
According to Terry, God commanded him to write TempleOS and guided him in the development: for example it was demanded that the resolution be 640x480. It is written in [HolyC](holy_c.md), Terry's own [programming language](programming_language.md). The OS comes with GUI, 2D and 3D library, [games](game.md) and even a program for communicating with God.
In his video blogs Terry talked about how technology became spoiled and that TempleOS is supposed to be [simple](minimalism.md) and [fun](fun.md). For this and other reasons the OS is limited in many way, for example:
- multitasking is non-preemptive (programs have to yield CPU themselves)
Temple OS source code has over 100000 [LOC](loc.md). It is publicly available and said to be in the [public domain](public_domain.md), however there is no actual [license](license.md)/waiver in the repository besides some lines such as "100% public domain" which are legally questionable and likely ineffective (see [licensing](license.md)).
