Technology is everywhere and provides a significant utility that can help empower and solve people's problems, but a large portion of the world still lacks technological fluency. ezOS empowers the elderly to use a resource they couldn't before. It gives them the ability to communicate with friends or relatives and to find answers to questions or problems they have. If they struggle to write with pencil and paper, they can access a wide variety of peripheral devices to write with on the computer, or they can use a dictation software. A computer can reveal solutions they were unaware of.

Sadly, most older adults can't use computers efficiently because they aren't given the proper resources and don't have the same foundation as younger generations to understand how computers' systems and interfaces work. Most of the time technology for older adults is dumbed down to make it difficult for them to mess up, but they are still thrown into a complex system that often leads to frustration and failure. Instead, this mock operating system develops an understanding of the UI and systems from the basics. It introduces new concepts that always build upon old ones and eventually develops to give them the complexity of other systems they will encounter. At the start, it's very bare-bones, but as the user develops a better understanding of the UI and features they evolve basing every new element on the foundations from previous elements.
