The target audience is **hobby OS developers** who are new to this hardware. It
will give you examples on how to do common Operating Systems tasks, like writing
to the serial console, reading keystrokes from it or use various peripherals
like a hardware-backed random number generator.
The target audience is **hobby OS developers** who are new to [ARM's 64 bit ARMv8-A
architecture](https://developer.arm.com/products/architecture/cpu-architecture/a-profile/docs).
It will give you examples on how to do common Operating Systems tasks, like writing
to the serial console, setting up virtual memory and exception handling and using
various peripherals like a hardware-backed random number generator.
However, it is *not* a tutorial on how to write a _complete_ OS. I won't cover
topics like advanced memory management and virtual file systems, or how to
implement multi-tasking. Rather, it comprises a set of micro-tutorials that
introduce different topics one after the other. Maybe in the distant future, we
might introduce a meta tutorial that combines all the resources to a full-fleged
kernel that can multi-task some simple userspace processes, but don't take my
word for it.
