Make sure to check out Shrine (based on TempleOS) that adds networking and many other things.

I ask out of curiosity, not dismissiveness: What is the goal of this project?

Without context, it strikes me as somewhat akin to adding details to a Picasso. The reason I'd use TempleOS is to get a peek into Terry Davis's mind, so what happens when someone else adds networking support?

Is it seen as a research project? Just something fun to play with?

I don't know, I'm not the author, just something I remember seeing related to TempleOS, I'd guess just a hobby kind of thing, we're on _Hacker_ News after all, so tinkering with technology just for the fun of it should be the priority.

I kind of get it. TempleOS seems like a pretty cool project, and making it into something suitable for actual modern use sounds fun and ambitious.
