# QSOE v0.1 Released As A QNX-Inspired RISC-V OS

**[Phoronix](https://daily.dev/sources/phoronix)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

QSOE v0.1 is a new open-source operating system inspired by QNX Neutrino, targeting the RISC-V architecture exclusively. It features a dual-kernel design: QSOE/N uses a custom-built Skimmer microkernel, while QSOE/L runs the seL4 microkernel. Both share the same user-space and adopt QNX design principles including a small kernel, async message-passing IPC, and a resource-manager model. Currently supported targets are the SiFive HiFive Unmatched board and QEMU. The project is Apache 2.0 licensed and hosted on GitLab.
