ReactOS is a free and open-sourced operating system based on the Windows NT architecture, it provides support for the applications that already exists, and an alternative to the current operating systems that dominates the market.

It is true that ReactOS current usage is mostly designed for programmers to expand and improve on. however, you don't need to be a rocket scientist to use it, and in its final state will be a consumer friendly Operating System. If you've used Windows before, you'll find yourself in a familiar environment with ReactOS.

This is my fifth contribution to the ReactOS project.

In this contribution, and following the request and advice of the LM, I tried to pay more attention to the construction of sentences, making them simple and direct, of course keeping the same original meaning.
Also, I took more time in this contribution seeking perfection, in order to quickly go up the ladder and have a higher score.

During my translation, I met several terms that pushed me to dig well and discover their meaning, to implement an honest and correct translation, and of course to enrich my intellectual baggage. Here are some of them:

Debugging

Debugging, in computer programming and engineering, is a process that involves identifying a problem, isolating the source of the problem, and then either correcting the problem or determining a way to work around it. The final step of debugging is to test the correction or workaround and make sure it works.

OpenGL (Open Graphics Library)

OpenGL is the computer industry's standard application program interface for defining 2-D and 3-D graphic images. It offers a set of "commands" or immediately executed functions. Each one of them directs a drawing action or causes special effects.

DOS (Disk Operating System)

It's an operating system that runs from a hard disk drive. An operating system (OS) is the software that controls a computer's hardware and peripheral devices and allows other programs to function.
Early computers did not have disk drives but were hard-wired to carry out specific computations.
Later, computers were able to store instructions in their memory. Computer memory space was limited, so the instructions to control the computer were moved onto a disk drive.
Today, every modern operating system would be considered a disk operating system.
