Neuro‑IDE: Universal Kernel Cortex

1 point

6 months ago

I built something I always wished existed in OSDev: a single cortex where the entire birth of an operating system can be seen, understood, and even narrated.

Repo: https://github.com/neuro-os/neuro-ide

Neuro‑IDE is not a typical IDE. It’s a unified brain for kernel creators: diagnostics, visualization, binary analysis, memory mapping, log timelines, and a fully procedural story engine that turns boot events into readable narratives.

It’s weird. It’s opinionated. It’s integrated. And it’s the tool I wish I had when I started.

What’s inside 17 modules, all in one place (zero dependencies)

Narrative Engine that transforms boot logs into stories (Epic, Technical, Philosophical, Humorous, Self-Aware)

Real-time serial log timeline

Memory map visualizer (BootViz)

ELF explorer for 64-bit binaries

Universal Binary Diff

Mock Time-Travel Debugger (KTTD)

Sandbox generator for isolated OSDev experiments

English + Spanish support

Why it exists OSDev tooling is scattered across scripts, hex dumps, half-broken viewers and terminal windows. I wanted a single place where:

beginners can see what’s happening

experts can accelerate debugging

and the kernel can speak for itself

This is my attempt at giving OSDev a tool with soul.

Status: v0.2 — stable, modular, and evolving. Feedback, issues, and ideas are welcome.
