Looking forward to try Redox one day. Rustlang is the future.

I hope apps in this new OS can be just a single file package which can be downloaded and run. That's one major thing which MacOS (and Windows to some extent) got right. Package managers on Linux are a premature optimization dependency hell..

The Linux distribution packages suffer from dependency hell because the C and C++ dependency management is manual, there's no good dependency manager on the C and C++ programming languages.

While the Rust programming language has automatic dependency management with Cargo, the best dependency manager in the history of computing.
