Midori is the code name for a managed code operating system developed secretly by Microsoft . It has been reported^[1][2] to be a possible commercial successor to the Singularity operating system, a research project started in 2003 to build a highly-dependable operating system in which the kernel, device drivers, and applications are all written in managed code.

The code name Midori was first discovered through the PowerPoint presentation CHESS: A systematic testing tool for concurrent software.^[3]

Midori has also been rumoured by some IT journalists as a possible replacement to Microsoft Windows.
