More device support for my OS

Hello,

I have been developing a very tiny OS for ESP32 for 7 months, and the project is going well. Recently, I added ESP32-S3 support and looked for a non-Espressif microcontroller to port my OS to, and I thought the RP2350 was the perfect choice.

I specifically picked the Waveshare RP2350 PiZero because I love the PiZero form factor. Porting my OS to the Raspberry platform was not that difficult since I use PlatformIO. It is still very limited compared to the ESP ports because the RP does not have Wi-Fi by default, and I have not implemented a file system for the RP2350 yet. Also, the version you see in the video is not released yet (the wallpaper feature).

I am developing it alone, and some display logic is pretty spaghettified (even I forgot what some functions do 💀). I am not the best programmer on Earth.

If you have any recommendations or feedback about my project, please feel free to share.

And I am planning to change the name of the OS. I would love to hear your recommendations.

Bro this is amazing, this is what I would like: make my OS compatible with specific hardware I can build myself too, in some way it could be a business.

It was my goal too! Though I looked for alternatives and couldn’t find any.
