It’s the manager. It’s the software that manages all of the computers resources to make sure all of the other software that wants to use those resources can do so in an orderly fashion.

There has to be something managing all of the various software a computer runs and how it interacts with the hardware of the computer and that’s the OS.

Without an OS each piece of software would have to manage this individually and that’s a lot of repetitive functionality that everyone would have to include in their software
