> Porting new paravirtual devices to ReactOS would significantly improve the experience of running ReactOS inside Phyllome OS, and other virtualization solutions leveraging [paravirtual hardware](https://wiki.phyllo.me/e/en/virt/virtio). See [here](https://reactos.org/contributing/) on how you can contribute to ReactOS
