ReacOS, the „open source Windows“ project has finally received an update after more than a year. The devs suggest we will soon be getting more.
There have been quite a few potential Windows alternatives that have popped up from time to time over the years. In our Look Back column, we had revisited some of these. For example, we published some stories on Corel Linux, BeOS, and Lindows. Another one of these projects is ReactOS often popularly referred to as „open source Windows“. The project has been around for a very long time and set off to achieve a Windows XP-like OS experience albeit in an open source manner.
Over the last few years, it has been making some slow but steady progress with the rollout of improvements and updates.
