OSle: a tiny boot sector operating system

OSle is an incredibly small operating system, coming in at only 510 bytes, so it fits entirely into a boot sector. It runs in real-mode, and is written in assembly. Despite the small size, it has a shell, a read and write file system, process management, and more. It even has its own tiny SDK and some pre-built programs.

The code’s available under the MIT license.
