Home Console Platform
High-performance living-room gaming.
Overview
What Home Console Platform is
Research into a living-room system: the profile with the most performance headroom in the device family, and the one the other profiles are defined relative to.
System relationship
The stack every profile shares.
A device profile is a set of capabilities inside one platform (one library, one runtime, one Store, one account) rather than a separate product with its own ecosystem.
Shared software stack, 6 layers from top to bottom: 01 Games and applications, 02 Aevornix Store and library, 03 Aevornix account and identity, 04 Aevornix Runtime, 05 Operating and device services, 06 Home, handheld and cloud profiles.

- This is your project. The profile you target is a build setting, not a separate port.
Aevornix Store and libraryDistribution, ownership and the library a player carries between devices.AvailableOpen
- Purpose
- Distribution, ownership and the library a player carries between devices.

- Aevornix Store
- Developer relevance
- The distribution layer already runs in production, so it is the one part of this stack you can build against today.
Aevornix account and identityOne identity across the Store, the site, the tools and every device profile.AvailableOpen
- Purpose
- One identity across the Store, the site, the tools and every device profile.
- Development stage

- Your account
- Developer relevance
- Entitlement and save ownership hang off this, so a player’s library is not per-device.
Aevornix RuntimePortable execution of compiled projects across supported targets.In DevelopmentOpen
- Purpose
- Portable execution of compiled projects across supported targets.

- Aevornix Runtime
- Developer relevance
- The compatibility contract. If your project runs on the runtime, moving between profiles is a capability question rather than a rewrite.
Operating and device servicesSystem services, permissions, storage, networking and application lifecycle.ResearchOpen
- Purpose
- System services, permissions, storage, networking and application lifecycle.

- Aevornix OS
- Developer relevance
- Determines what a project may ask of a device, and how it starts, suspends and resumes.
Home, handheld and cloud profilesThe declared capability levels a build is certified against.Future PlatformOpen
- Purpose
- The declared capability levels a build is certified against.

- RVStack
- Developer relevance
- You target a profile, not a device. The profile is what the compatibility report is written against.
Design principles
- Sustained performance rather than short bursts
- Quiet thermal design
- Fast local storage
- Serviceable construction
- Shared Aevornix runtime
- Developer profile targeting
What this is not
There is no product, no name, no specification, no price and no date. These are the properties the research is directed toward, and stating them is not a commitment that any of them will ship.
