We humans are pathetically unsuited for multitasking. I can barely do one thing at a time correctly. Granted, you are a multitasking ninja, you can do 3 things at once. But between you and me, we both know that's not even close to enough.
MultitaskOS is a humble little tool that aims at helping you be more efficient handling the multiple tasks that you have to perform concurrently. It accomplishes it by acting as our "Context-switching framework".
Context-switching is the process by which a single processing unit can handle multiple tasks concurrently. Imagine you have 4 tasks that you have to do at the same time. You start working on the first. While you are working on it, the others are on hold. At some point, the first task gets blocked because you need to wait for something. Or maybe you decide you have been working on it for too long. Regardless, now it's time to start working on task 2. And then task 3, and task 4. Once it's the time to resume working on task 1, however, how do you know where you left off? what you have already done? This is called the task context, which you saved into your memory when paused working on the task, and now you are trying to load it back to resume execution (see more about context-switching here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context_switch).
However, our memory is extremely volatile and error prone. Are you confident enough to rely solely on it to store the context of all these critical tasks you surely have to accomplish with maximum precision? I definitely don't. With MultitaskOS, you just need to write down each task's context, and it will be securely stored for you to read it back when ready to resume work. Whenever. Wherever.
