======================== ReactOS™ Version 0.3.x Updated March 3, 2013 ======================== 1. What is ReactOS? ------------------- ReactOS™ is an Open Source effort to develop a quality operating system that is compatible with applications and drivers written for the Microsoft® Windows™ NT family of operating systems (NT4, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, Seven). Website: http://www.reactos.org 2. Relationship with the WINE project ------------------------------------- ReactOS has always intended to work with the WINE project to share as much programming effort as possible. This mainly concerns User Mode DLLs and still happens to a degree today. Other areas of cooperation lie in applications and testing suites. 3. Future compatibility ----------------------- The ReactOS project, although currently focused on Windows Server 2003 compatibility, is always keeping an eye toward compatibility with Windows Vista and future Windows NT releases. 4. Supporting other System Applications --------------------------------------- The Windows NT architecture allows for subsystems, as does the ReactOS architecture. A subsystem is an implementation of the APIs of another operating system, allowing ReactOS to run applications from other systems. We are already looking at subsystems for: Java, OS/2, and DOS and possibly others in the future. 5. Tutorials ------------ Developer and User Tutorials: http://www.reactos.org/wiki The tutorials contain more information on the project, compiling and testing ReactOS - amongst other topics. Contributors to the project are always welcome. 6. Author --------- This document was written by Jason Filby (jasonfilby@yahoo.com).
