While the OS is still lacking in applications, a few have been ported, including [[Unix Amiga Emulator|E-UAE]], an emulation program that allows m68k-native AmigaOS applications to run. Some AROS-specific applications have also been written. AROS has [[Internet protocol suite|TCP/IP]] networking support, and has available an experimental version of [[AMosaic]] web browser, for test purposes, among other Internet-related applications. The Poseidon [[USB]] stack has been ported to AROS.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.osnews.com/story/21548/Poseidon_USB_Stack_Bounty_Reached_Open_Source_AROS_Port |title=Poseidon USB Stack Bounty Reached: Open Source, AROS Port |website=OSNews |access-date=September 7, 2010}}</ref>
AROS is designed to be [[Source-code compatibility|source-compatible]] with [[AmigaOS]]. On m68k [[Amiga]] hardware it is also [[Binary-code compatibility|binary-compatible]], so binaries already compiled for AmigaOS 3 can be run on AROS.<ref>[[Wikibooks:Aros/Platforms/68k support]]</ref> On x86 [[IA-32]] 32-bit platforms Janus-UAE,<ref>{{Cite web|url=
The aim of AROS is to remain aloof of the legal and political spats that have plagued other AmigaOS implementations by being independent of hardware and of any central control. The de facto motto of AROS, "No schedule and rocking" both lampoons the infamous words "On Schedule and Rockin" from [[Amiga, Inc.]] CEO Bill McEwen, and declares a lack of the formal deadlines.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.amiga.com/corporate/amigadepartypack.shtml|title=AmigaDE Party Pack Announcement |website=Amiga Inc. |date=June 11, 2001 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20010619055418/http://www.amiga.com/corporate/amigadepartypack.shtml |archive-date=June 19, 2001}}</ref>

=== Apollo OS ===
ApolloOS is an active m68k distribution, crafted specially for the Vampire V4 Standalone [[FPGA]]-based system.
=== AxRuntime (AxRT) ===
AxRuntime uses the AROS source code to create a portable runtime, which is what AROS in hosted mode is actually anyway.
As a tool for developers the runtime makes use of this mode more convenient. The current version is version V41.4.<ref>https://github.com/deadwood2/AROS/tree/alt-runtime/arch/all-runtime/docs/distribution</ref>
AxRuntime binaries are Linux binaries, but work with Windows Subsystem for Linux on both Windows 10 and Windows 11.
For use on Linux the best recommendation is Ubuntu 20.04 64-bit, other Linux systems are less well supported but work.
== Influence on AmigaOS and MorphOS ==
[[Haage & Partner]] used small pieces of the AROS source code for AmigaOS 3.5 and 3.9.<ref>{{Cite web |url=
