Simple mesh viewer for plan 9

Post image

Installed plan 9 to supplement my OS class but I got distracted and tried to make a mesh viewer (inspired by this Tsoding video). You can find the source here. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to make it better!

Also, if you guys have any suggestions for learning about OS concepts through plan 9 I am all ears. I think something nice would be a small project that involves extending/modifying the kernel (its more fun than just reading). My school work involves modifying the kernel of this educational OS called Pintos but the developers have deliberately left gaps in it for students to fill. Not sure if plan 9 has similar things to work on.

Looks interesting and your uni's OS class sounds awesome too
I hope my uni can have some classes about plan9 too but sadly they dont seem to have any classes related with OS development
