GNU Mes
A full-source bootstrap system for building software from minimal dependencies, expanded to support ARM and RISC-V CPU platforms.
Product Information
- Description
- GNU Mes provides a full-source bootstrap system that enables building software from minimal dependencies, addressing the trust chain problem in software compilation. It achieves this by starting with a small, auditable seed—typically a minimal binary or assembly code—and progressively builds more complex software components, ensuring each step can be verified from source. Key features include support for ARM and RISC-V CPU platforms, expanding its utility beyond traditional x86 architectures, and integration with projects like Full-source GNU Mes on ARM and RISC-V to enhance cross-platform compatibility. This system is particularly valuable for security-conscious environments, firmware development, and operating system creation where transparent, reproducible builds are essential, allowing developers to establish a verifiable software supply chain from the ground up.
