A new leak that could shake the tech world has hit the headlines like a bombshell. Google is developing a new desktop operating system, Aluminum OS, in addition to ChromeOS, and reportedly entirely based on Android.

What exactly does Aluminum OS offer?

Code discovered in the latest beta version of the Google app has revealed the company’s secret project. This new operating system, rather than being web-focused like ChromeOS, is built directly on the Android Linux kernel. This means users will be able to run Android apps much more natively and efficiently on the desktop environment.

Google may be aiming to clear up the clutter in its ecosystem with this move. Currently, Android is used on tablets and phones, while ChromeOS is used on computers. However, this new project will provide a seamless integration similar to Apple’s integration between the iPad and Mac. This will make switching between devices much smoother.

Industry analysts are linking this software to new hardware. A high-end Pixel laptop, expected to be released in the future, may come with this new operating system. While the company hasn’t yet announced an official date, the codename “Aluminum” has already generated excitement.
