Compatibility

Native first. Compatibility later.

Sky OS can inspect and model some foreign formats today, but real compatibility layers are long-term work. The OS itself has to become stable before it can safely run everyone else’s software.

Sky-native apps

SKYEX programs are the current readable app path, useful for testing process and file/network instruction ideas.

current

JavaCompat

JARs can be discovered and inspected, including manifest information. A real JVM is still a huge future project.

future runtime

WinCompat

Windows PE files can be inspected through the compatibility path. Real WinAPI execution is not complete.

inspection only

Why this page is careful.

Compatibility claims can get fake very fast. Sky OS should say exactly what it does: inspect formats, prepare loaders, model APIs, and build toward native execution step by step.

Running Windows, Linux, macOS, Java, or modern games requires loaders, APIs, graphics/audio/input translation, networking, threads, security, and countless details. Sky OS treats that as a long-term engineering path, not a checkbox.
