[Перевод] В ReactOS заключен контракт для улучшения набора тестов

Фонд ReactOS Deutschland eV заключил контракт с одним из участников сообщества и разработчиком проекта, Карлом Дж. Бялоруцким. Он начал участвовать в проекте внеся несколько улучшений в оболочку ReactOS. В мае 2024 года он вступил в основную команду разработчиков, а в марте 2025 года возглавил выпуск релиза ReactOS 0.4.15 после того, как предыдущий релиз-менеджер не смог продолжить работу над проектом. В мае 2025 года с ним был заключен контракт, рассчитанный до августа 2025 года.

2 things I need to do before #endof10

1.) pick up a new USB capture card that supports #linux and captures composite and HDMI (I found one already but feel free to leave a link to one if you know a good one)

2.) Pick up a few SSDs for my T420 so that I can triple boot linux, #freedos, and #reactos

#reactos hat schon einige Themes mehr 🤓

chic ist auch das Talisman Theme

The top right contains a list of files and programs. The bottom of the screen shows a task bar with icons. A text overlay at the top says "www.Bandicam.com".

I saw a video from youtube video how has improved.

It is still buggy but surprisingly it works decently now than before.

Admittedly though I only tried on vmware and not on bare metal so it may end up similar to danooct1's reactos baremetal videos

Could #ReactOS be an alternative to Windows 10 once Microsoft ends support in October 2025?

@Linux @eu_os

What is incorrect? Can you be more specific?

#ReactOS uses US-based Github.

github.com/reactos/reactos

I think that's ok if the exit cost is low. Same for #EU_OS. Once people start using it, they may consider to have a build server in the EU. Do we now need to change the architecture because of this? I do not think so.

Калькулятор из iPhone в ReactOS

Я продолжаю изучать программирование. В этот раз моей затеей стал перенос калькулятора из iPhone в ReactOS. В этой статье я расскажу о том, как я переносила калькулятор из iPhone на ReactOS.

Я портировала знаменитую утилиту Fetch на ReactOS

Да, я действительно написала Fetch-подобную утилиту для ReactOS. В этой статье я расскажу, как написание приложения для ReactOS стало моим первым опытом. При этом я не умею программировать.

Lilbits: Tariffs on Chinese shipments take effect, Apple opens up the App Store (a bit), and first look at Google’s Pixel Desktop mode

Now that a US District Court judge has ordered Apple to loosen its restrictions on apps that direct users to pay for goods and subscriptions using non App Store billing, a growing number of developers are starting to update their apps to let users find other ways to pay. Patreon, and Proton are among those who are already planning to do so, and Spotify’s updated app is already available.

So […]

ReactoS is an open source operating system working toward Windows compatibility. So far it's mostly only compatible with really old software, but now there's experimental support a discrete GPU... an old one (3dfx Voodoo 5). phoronix.com/news/React-OS-Voo #ReactOS #Voodoo5 #3dfx

Sick news! If you haven't played around with ReactOS, definitely look into it. At the very least, it's a fun throwback to the Windows 9x era, but it has also come a very long way over the years!

I remember trying ReactOS in college. Back then, it was barely usable. Now, it's gotten to the point that the community project can run 3D applications.

I wasn't really planning on running yet another version of #Linux, but over the last couple of days I have been trying to find something interesting to run on an old 32bit laptop.
#HaikuOS keeps hanging after a few minutes (I have been trying to use it and keep it updated for a while as I loved #BeoS, but have run out of patience), #plan9front was too hardcore and you don't even get a Glenda boot logo 😞.

#ReactOS wouldn't even get to the installer when booting off CD (an old version worked in the past), and OpenBSD doesn't even come with a program launcher by default.

@q4os installed easily and worked fine on my old HP nc6230.
It has a nice lot of up-to-date software, a simple installer, nice themes, and seems stable so far 🥳

Hat #ReactOS wirklich noch keinen Fedi-Account?!

Oh cool, #ReactOS 0.4.15 is out.

@WeirdWriter Hi Robert, good question & one I don't know offhand (if anyone does, please share!) Looking on reactos.org/faq/#can-i-install I found "Can I install ReactOS and run any software compatible with Windows on it?
Probably yes. However we highly recommend to check first if your favourite app runs in ReactOS. ReactOS is still an on-going project and not all the apps and drivers runs perfect on it."

Are any of our #FOSS / #Linux friends involved in #ReactOS able to share experiences please?
