    There are two parts of this. Are you thinking of making a new kernel? or are you planning on making a new shell for existing linux or you may say unix kernel. You cannot use Windows kernel since it is not open source.

    Creating & maintaining Operating system in Linux, has became quite easy due to LFS (Linux From Scratch). <a href="https://www.linuxfromscratch.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Welcome to Linux From Scratch!</a>

    Almost a year ago I had tried it, I failed though, resulting in errors of missing dependencies.But now, I am quite sure I can build one.
    If you need anyone in developing one more Linux flavour, then I'm in for project.

    If your intent is the end in itself--i.e. to have fun creating something you can know you created yourself--then then more power to ya! Go for it!

    But if you're motivated to try to create a practical OS that will be useful and desirable, then you might want to examine some of the many, many prior attempts to figure out why they're not household names today. Consider these:

    <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BeOS" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Beos</a> or #-Link-Snipped-# -- BeOS is a fascinating but sad story of a possibly superior OS twarted,
    #-Link-Snipped-# -- a BeOS-like OS in development,
    #-Link-Snipped-# -- an Amiga-like OS (which was kind of BeOS-like),
    #-Link-Snipped-# -- an Amiga-like OS,
    #-Link-Snipped-#,
    #-Link-Snipped-#,
    <a href="https://visopsys.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Visopsys | Visual Operating System</a>,
    #-Link-Snipped-#
    <a href="https://www.osfree.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">searx-osf</a> -- An OS/2-like OS,

    Or even some excellent, usable, and in-use OSes like
    #-Link-Snipped-#,
    #-Link-Snipped-#

    Some would add #-Link-Snipped-# to the top list, but I still have hopes it will become a usable and popular replacement for Windows.
