yes, not a unix os but rather unix-like, and i want to program all of it on python, is that possible?? even the kernel, i want it all python. i know most kernels use c++ or c* but maybe python has a library to turn c* into python?? i'm still sort of a beginner but thanks and i would appreciate the answers

Warning: talking out of my butt a bit so take with a grain of salt.

I wonder if you could look at micropython. You could implement a unix like world on top of micropython then use micropython as the layer where a normal os would be.

It would be miserable and likely impossible to be fully unix compliant but could be a fun thing to play with. I would be amazed if it ever somehow could run native unix binaries.
