The UnoDOS family

pc64 is one of many. The same GUI-first UnoDOS runs on more than 20 kinds of hardware, from 8-bit consoles to modern ARM boards and phones. Here is how the others differ.

One idea, many machines

The same UnoDOS desktop and apps run on machines as different as a Commodore 64 and a Raspberry Pi. On each one, UnoDOS asks the machine for a screen and for input, then runs the same way. A shared design keeps every version consistent instead of drifting apart.

How much desktop each machine gets

It depends on how much memory the machine has:

• The whole system: pc64's own desktop and its apps - including the browser with secure sites, UnoOffice and the music players - also run on an ARM phone, the Planet Cosmo Communicator, as cosmo64, with its keyboard, touch panel, SD card, USB, wired networking over a USB adapter, and sound. It has no Wi-Fi or cellular, and it is source only: you build it and boot it from the phone's own boot menu.
• The full desktop: more capable machines (PlayStation 2, Dreamcast, and the ARM and PowerPC boards) run the full desktop shown in this manual.
• A simpler desktop: the smallest machines (NES, Game Boy, the C64) have very little memory, so they run a simpler icon-and-button desktop instead.

The full lineup

Every port's ready-to-run image except cosmo64's is committed in the repository, so each Download link below always gets you the latest build - a ROM for a console runs in any emulator or on a flash cart, and each port's folder has a README with the details.
