aOS - The Future Starts Here




What is aOS?
aOS, formerly known as AspectOS, is an operating system fully created on Scratch. The point of the project is to mimic an actual OS, such as Windows or MacOS. Of course, it won't be an exact copy of those operating systems, but there will be as many features as possible to try to mirror that.

When was aOS Created?
aOS BETA 1 was created on June 1, 2021 before it was a collaboration. On September 15, 2021, the first post for the aOS collab was posted. It blew up over time and the first version was released on February 5, 2022. After that though, there were some difficulties with collaborations. It became inactive and as a team decision, it was planned to become a real operating system on December 1, 2022. The collaboration lasted until January 19, 2023, when I officially stopped with development on aOS since I didn't have coding experience. A new thread was created the same day, but there was barely any development, and the thread closed on March 22, 2023. The project had no direction and it was dead until October 1, 2024, when it was revived. The name had changed from AspectOS to aOS, and the third version was expected to release soon, entirely skipping aOS 2 (I have the project but it is not good enough to be released). The project has been worked on ever since, but slowly. On September 15, 2025, four years after the first post of aOS was created, I have opened the thread back to people because I want to once again work with a group.

Rules

aOS is a collaboration meant to be fun for everybody. It's a way for people to cooperate with each other. But even then, we still have some rules for people wanting to join aOS.

Activity is one of the most important skills that you need to follow if you want to join aOS. I want to see progress being made consistently, as I want this OS to be released in the next 12 months. Because of this, we will have activity checks once in a while to make sure that people are working on the project. This doesn't mean that you need to be working on it every single day, but I don't want to see contributors do nothing.

Don't excessively go off-topic. Every once in a while it's okay to talk about something that isn't related to the project, but it shouldn't be the main focus of the thread. If I allowed no off-topic posts at all, then the thread will get boring because there isn't any chemistry being made between contributors. But I will encourage people to use the official studio as well if they want to chat.

To join aOS, you need to have some experience in the forums. We want people who are applying to have at least 100 posts. This is to make sure that I know that you have some experience in the forums. I will also check your projects as well, to see if they are good or not. This may or may not affect the decision for you to join the team or not.

Originally, I did not allow people stealing tasks. But now, I have allowed multiple people to work on a single task if they want to. At the end, I can compare the final result of the tasks and then I can tweak it a bit to add it to aOS.

This is common sense but please follow the Community Guidelines on Scratch.

Many of the things that will be added to aOS may be created via external softwares. They can range from coding software to art software. We use a lot of external software and it is necessary to sign up for external software if you want a better chance of your task being added to the final result of aOS. If you do not have access to external software due to reasons like you aren't able to, then it is fine, you can continue on Scratch. Although the chances of your final result being added to the final result may lower. These are completely optional but highly recommended.

I have the right to remove you from the collaboration at any time for any reason.

We have the right to block you from aOS and anything related to it if you do something very bad. The shortest amount of time for a block is 2 weeks, and the longest amount of time for a block is permanently. When you become blocked, you are removed from the collaboration entirely.

Thank you for reading these rules. If you have made it here, then you read all of the rules or you don't care about the rules. If you just skipped to the end, just note that we will be doing things to check if you are eligible for aOS and you won't have any clue of what we will be being, so it is recommended to read those rules if you haven't. If you get rejected, there is no cooldown for joining AspectOS.

If you are still confused, please contact @AIGamesDeveloper on his profile
