1 **Collapse OS** is a [[Forth]]-based [[operating system]] and a collection of tools and documentation with a single purpose: preserve the ability to program microcontrollers through civilizational [[collapse|Collapse computing]]. It is designed to: 2 3 * Run on minimal and improvised machines. 4 * Interface through improvised means (serial, keyboard, display). 5 * Edit text and binary contents. 6 * Compile assembler source for a wide range of MCUs and CPUs. 7 * Read and write from a wide range of storage devices. 8 * Assemble itself and deploy to another machine. 9 10 Collapse OS was also [ported](https://github.com/schierlm/collapseos-uxn) to the [[UXN]] virtual machine. 11 12 [[Dusk OS]] will be a similar OS geared at more powerful devices and aimed at general-purpose post-collapse uses. 13 14 See also: 15 16 * [The official website of Collapse OS](http://collapseos.org/) 17 * [[Collapse computing]] 18 * [[Civboot]] 19 * [[Dusk OS]]
