Here are the last Concepts I am making for today.
First being the Information for Zulas. Second is the User Selection on the Login Window, and the last being the password Prompt.

god that looks awesome

Looks pretty nice! Though, I'll stick with Arch XD

Well I made a quick material wallpaper for Zulas.

Spoiler: Wallpaper

Well, doesn't this look interesting?

Another Experimental Build is live!
Just remember that the build it downloads and installs is a bit old, and unfinished; but still functional.

Download the build here: GitHub Releases

Just tried it. Pretty nice. New features should include making a new user account, as it starts off on your Doc account.

Yep, I am integrating a full on Account System; most likely with a limit of only four users.
I will also be using the Material Icons; like you see in Distros of Linux such as Solus. But, also combining that with my own Interface style.

Any update planned for this month?
Really want to test this, but I will wait for a stable public release.

A possible update release will be available during this month. Most likely near the middle or end of the month.

Said update will most likely be unstable.

I do not think you can call it ''dead'' that kind of dev is such giant that you can not show a new thing that will shine each month.

In term of performance I am curious how much it take with windows behide all that.
(Or does it shut most of windows unneeded service & program?)
If you happen to take even less resources than windows and allow application like 3Ds max to function without more issue than windows than, where do I sign? (in short you would win an constant user ^^)

Well I haven't been able to do any major programming as of late. I have been working on other things in real life, but I am also working on some Svc
Classes for Performance management, and other management (IE: Weather, login, and explorer services). In the mean time; getting the SDK working is my top-priority for this project.

Could it be used on Windows PE ? Could be nice

Yes~ I am thinking of re-writing Zulas entirely in NETCore. Since I am planning on just ditching the horrible .NET Framework Design Library in favor for my own.

Sweet!

Nice ! You should pack it into a Windows PE live / boot CD. With some little tools live antivirus, partition manager and other it could really become nice !
