Writing a kernel in C# on Linux
https://github.com/ZeroLP/ZeroKernel - This is kernel driver, but maybe that can give you idea what low-level C# can look like.

Mark Russinovich: “Working towards enabling Windows driver development in Rust”
I didn't realise that. Then again, I only experimented with AOT executables quite briefly. Perhaps Cosmos[1] stuck in my head more than what I read about AOT dotnet applications.

Sweet C#
there are entire toolkits for that! https://github.com/cosmosos/cosmos

- XenOS, an OS made in C#!

Does Microsoft ever try to written the whole windows OS codebase in entirely in C# in future?
This is about the same time that Cosmos came about - they’ve got they own ASM-like flavour of C# called X# and IL2CPU

Is C# a good programming language for kernel development?
I recommend you to take a look at the Cosmos project. It's an operating system construction kit integrated to Visual Studio using it's own compiler translating IL code (C#, VB.NET, F#...) to x86 assembly.

Found this on a command-line only OS.
From these lines of code one would assume so, but apparently Cosmos seems to be quiet more serious than just a simple shell.
