#Unik

Unik is a Go module for running Go programs as unikernels, without an underlying operating system. The included demo is a functional Gio GUI program that demonstrates the virtio GPU and tablet drivers.

#Requirements

• Linux
• Qemu >= 4.2.0
• mtools (for creating FAT images)
• OVMF UEFI firmware (dnf install edk2-ovmf on Fedora)
• (Optional) gnu-efi (for building the UEFI boot loader)

#Building

The build.sh script takes a go package or file list, builds the Go program and a bootable FAT image with the bootloader and program. To build the demo, run

$ ./build.sh ./cmd/demo

#Executing

The qemu.sh script runs the bootable image inside Qemu, with the virtio GPU and tablet devices enabled. If everything goes well,

$ ./qemu.sh

should give you a functional GUI program with mouse support. There is not yet support for the keyboard input.
