Ä€tmanOS

AtmanOS compiles ordinary Go programs into images which can be run on a hypervisor without a conventional operating system.

It provides a microkernel and implementation of Go's runtime and standard library implemented natively in Go (with a little bit of Assembly).

It currently targets the Xen hypervisor, allowing the images to be run on Amazon EC2, Rackspace Cloud, IBM SoftLayer, and other cloud providers.
