Avalon

A browser OS that stays small, so products can plug in as modules

Who it is for

If every product feature lives inside the OS tree, you cannot reuse the desktop for anything else. Avalon is the thin host: session, files, and base admin. Search, intel, office apps, and vertical tools are meant to arrive later through Optimus, not by forking the shell.

What it is

Avalon is the TITANOSYS web OS that runs on Niflheim. You get a desktop shell and a core API backed by PostgreSQL and object storage. Ikon owns look and feel. Arachnid owns Tor egress and network policy. Optimus is how extra UI and backends attach.

What you get

  • Desktop shell with base apps, files, and a real session model
  • Core API for authZ, files proxy, and base admin surfaces
  • PostgreSQL for app data and S3-compatible object storage for files
  • Hooks so Optimus modules can contribute UI and backends
  • Ikon themes out of the box, with Arachnid for Tor and policy
