The project, begun in 1995, has over the years become an almost "feature complete" implementation of AmigaOS{{snd}} 3.1 which, as of May 2017,{{update inline|date=September 2021}} only lacks a few areas of functionality. This was achieved by the efforts of a small team of developers.

It can be installed on most [[IBM PC compatible]]s, and features native graphics drivers for video cards such as the [[GeForce]] range made by [[Nvidia]]. As of May 2007 USB keyboards and mice are also supported. AROS has been ported to the [[Sam440ep]] [[PowerPC]] board and a first test version for the [[Efika]] was released in 2009.
