> BRUTAL is an operating system built from scratch in modern C.
Modern as in C11?
> BRUTAL is built on top of a capabilty based micro-kernel.
Their own, or somebody else's? Why can't they just say which?
> BRUTAL targets x86_64, i686, RISC-V and ARM.
Ok, a decent set of targets, certainly for starting out with.
> BRUTAL exposes its features to developers through clean APIs.
Which are listed where?
> BRUTAL features a rich and modern C library complete with fibers, custom allocators, generic data structures, and more...
Did they reimplement the entire C library? Added a backed/port for an existing library?
I like Brutalism in design, don't like Minimalism in documentation.

> My question though was more about rust as a language. Does it have a golden standard introduction to it like C does.
You'd have to be specific. If you are looking for simplicity, nothing will ever beat C, but just because a languague is simple doesn't mean it's easy to program. See Brainfuck.
Generally Rust Book is considered a gold standard, but I rarely read them unless I am truly at a loss what next.
