No. Sorry, you're out of luck there. Operating Systems are complex pieces of software that interact directly with the computers hardware. To interact with a computers hardware through a program, you must use a very low level programming language.

What is a low level language?

When a computer reads code, it must break it down until it is readable by the machine. The broken down code (aka, low level language or machine code) is a series of ones and zeros. There are a number of low level languages: ASM (Asembly), Machine Code, and C.

Why do operating systems need low level languages?

In order to communicate with the machine (CPU), the OS needs to be programmed in a low level language. If it was done in a high level language, it wouldn't be able to communicate and another OS would need to break it down for the machine.

What about HTML? Where does it fit in?

HTML is pretty much the highest-level language there is available. Most OSs can't read HTML directly, and require an internet browser to read it (ex. Google Chrome, Firefox, or Safari).

If you are looking into making an OS, just know a few things:

1. It will take years to build it

2. You must know a low level programming language very well

3. It might be best to start with someone else's OS instead of reinventing the wheel (ex. Linux open source)
