As soon as I tried it out I fell in love. it severs as a amazing alterative to OS's like TrueNAS, OMV and similar. This project needs to get way more attention, as for my personal needs its blows all the others out the park.

Its lightweight, good documention, has a very nice clean ui aswell and as the name suggests is modular allowing you to pick what you need running with a relatively intuitive manor.

What is MOS (Modular Operating System)?

MOS is a lightweight operating system based on Devuan, designed specifically for small, energy-efficient home servers.

The primary goal of MOS is to provide a simple, reliable, and low-overhead platform for self-hosting, virtualization, and homelab environments.

This project started as a personal solution, and at some point I decided to release it publicly to see if it resonates with others.

MOS is still evolving, but the core ideas are already in place.
