From the HarmonyOS webpage:

>Make development enjoyable with distributed technologies

>Hardware synergy for resource sharing

>HarmonyOS treats different smart devices into a single super device, behind which all devices work collaboratively and share their resources to offer a seamless experience for users.

Does anyone know what this means, because it sounds amazing. Does the OS natively VPN all your devices and expose their storage/computes/etc in a Plan9-esque way?






Not sure about the technical details, but I think it's a bit like iOS -> everything must go through the internal shop.

Not very exciting IMO.

Well that's disappointing if true. I guess I shouldn't have any high hopes for the consumer OS space UI/UX-wise.

The Arcan project is working on this vision, and they have funding from NLNet ! Still seems early but its exciting to follow

Uhm, I don't think so. How did you came up with that impression?

It sounds more like IOT
