when will the author complete his cool much-needed tutorial?

it would be great to code along with your tutorial and finish it to have a full understanding of how to write OS.

But if i start it now, i will progress as much as the tutorial allows me.

when do u plan to finish your cool tutorial?

Finishing the material currently in the book helps you to gain a solid foundation to start study on your own. You can then visit OSDev wiki to read up information there and implementing OS concepts on your own. At the very least, you are not totally clueless anymore.

As when I plan to finish, probably not anytime soon. That's the reason why the book stopped where it currently is, to build you up enough knowledge for readers to go on their own.

Finally, I'm glad you found it helpful and cool 👍 . Thanks.

Could you perhaps, open up a link for donation? Maybe that would motivate you to finish the book? I don't know how else I can contribute, but I really want you to finish the book, because your style of writing works for me. I am afraid that if I jump to OSDev Wiki after your book, I might get lost somewhere.

@darmie thanks for your kind words. I intend to finish the book sometimes in the future, but not now, as I am extremely busy with my own business now. For the future content, I planned to add how to make wrappers around BIOS interrupt calls, and calling from to 16-bit mode interrupts to effectively use your BIOS as the device drivers your kernel can use, effectively help readers to focus on making the OS instead of writing device drivers from scratch. But currently it's only a plan though.
