That's an interesting experiment, but that's all it is. The project relies on ASM/C/C++ to boot into a microkernel and to interpret and run the C#. But I suppose it would greatly reduce the attack surface of C/C++/ASM code.
I just wonder, for example, how a capable hardware abstraction layer would work in C#, interrupt handling, CPU and IO scheduling, etc.

I agree rust is probably better suited. Or Apple could make their own memory safe language. They’re clearly capable.
