Simplicity is a goal to $LK,"keep the line count down",A="FI:::/Doc/Strategy.TXT"$, so it's easy to tinker with. As it turns-out, simplicity makes it faster in some ways, too. It never switches privilege levels, never changes address maps, tends to load whole contiguous files and other, similar things which boost speed. It's only $TX,"81,056",D="DD_TEMPLEOS_LOC_OFFICIAL"$ lines of code including the kernel, the 64-bit compiler, the graphics library and all the tools. More importantly, it's designed to keep the user's line count down -- you can do a $LK,"Hello World",A="FI:::/Doc/HelloWorld.TXT"$ application in one line of code and can put graphics on the screen with a three line program!

It's a kayak, not a Titanic -- it will crash if you do something wrong. You quickly reboot, however. DOS and the 8-bit home computers of the 80's worked fine without memory protection and most computers in the world -- the embedded ones -- operate without protection. The resulting simplicity of no protections is why TempleOS has value. In facts, that's the point of TempleOS. See the $LK,"TempleOS Charter",A="FI:::/Doc/Charter.TXT"$.

Conventional thinking is "failure is not an option" for general purpose operating systems. Since this OS is used in addition to Windows or Linux, however, failure is an option -- just use Windows or Linux if you can't do something. I cherry-pick what it will and won't do to make it maximally beautiful.

Two things to know about TempleOS are that $UL,1$tasks$UL,0$ have $LK,"MAlloc",A="MN:MAlloc"$/$LK,"Free",A="MN:Free"$ heap memory, not applications, and tasks have compiler symbol tables that persist at a scope like environment variables in other operating systems, and the symbols can include functions.

3rd parties can make TempleOS software. It will be distributed as $LK,"RedSea ISO Files",A="MN:RedSeaISO"$. Burn a CD/DVD, or in a $FG,2$QEMU$FG$$FG$, $FG,2$VMware$FG$ or $FG,2$VirtualBox$FG$, set your CD/DVD to point to the ISO file. Then, access the $FG,2$'T'$FG$ drive.

3rd party libraries are banned, since they circumvent the 100,000 line of code limit in the $LK,"TempleOS Charter",A="FI:::/Doc/Charter.TXT"$. All applications must only depend on the core TempleOS files and whatever they bring along in the ISO. This is similar to how Commodore 64 applications only depended on the ROM.
