The NT kernel is built on top of a hardware abstraction layer, which should make it easier to port it to different architectures.
Yeah, porting the kernel is the "easy" part for any OS. Its the user space and building up a software ecosystem for the new architecture that is a pain in the ass.
To be fair, most/all kernels are written on a hardware abstraction layer, although lot of that kernel was built off of VMS… 😂
Gotta say, that is the most technical picture ever posted from lemmynsfw
