About BerryStore & BerryCore

Keeping BlackBerry 10 Alive Through Open-Source Innovation

🍇 The BerryCore Mission

BerryCore is the QNX Extended Userland — a modernized continuation of the open-source legacy started by Berry Much OS.

This project exists to breathe new life into BlackBerry 10 and QNX devices, transforming them into capable development and experimentation environments. BerryCore provides an expanded runtime layer, updated binaries, and streamlined environment scripts that make adding and using modern software on QNX simple and consistent.

Honoring the Legacy

This project is built as a continuation and tribute to the incredible work done by the developers of Berry Much OS. Their dedication to keeping the BlackBerry 10 and QNX platform alive laid the foundation for everything that follows here. Without their ingenuity — rebuilding toolchains, porting compilers, and proving that these devices could still be productive, programmable, and free — BerryCore would simply not be possible.

Who I Am

I'm a software developer, systems engineer, and programming instructor with a deep passion for building applications and managing complex systems. With years of experience in the industry, I've honed my skills in software development, with a particular focus on open-source technologies and embedded systems.

As a dedicated BlackBerry 10 enthusiast, I've channeled my professional expertise into creating BerryCore — a project that combines my love for systems engineering, open-source development, and the BB10 platform. My goal is to ensure these remarkable devices remain useful, hackable, and developer-friendly for years to come.
