yes, not a unix os but rather unix-like, and i want to program all of it on python, is that possible?? even the kernel, i want it all python. i know most kernels use c++ or c* but maybe python has a library to turn c* into python?? i'm still sort of a beginner but thanks and i would appreciate the answers

Micropython is an interpreter, implemented in C. Anything running in it wouldn't be an operating system in the sense that we usually mean. Anything incorporating it wouldn't satisfy OP's goal of being "only Python".

If a CPU were developed that used Python bytecode as its official instruction set, perhaps using micropython implemented as microcode, then it might work.
