Could you build this?
No Operating system development demands low-level systems programming, assembly, hardware architecture knowledge, memory management, and interrupt handling.
What it would actually take: A custom OS requires low-level C, C++, or Rust alongside assembly for x86_64 or ARM architectures. The developer must implement a custom bootloader or UEFI interface, virtual memory paging, task schedulers, interrupt handling routines (IDT), and hardware device drivers, demanding deep computer systems engineering expertise.
