For multitasking you could maybe use async apps that print to different parts of the framebuffer

When multitasking is added, it'll be used for lots of things, mostly drivers (which could mean a frame buffer). It'll be very helpful if you made a way to implement a working task handler for the x86 kernel. This function breaks everything when you call it, it causes a memory error idk how to deal with it and haven't really tried to.

network drivers shouldn't be too hard as long as you know where to start

I don't even know how the kernel operates 😂

The only problem with having UEFI support is that it automatically thinks your on APIC and fires a timer interrupt when you run the "sti" instruction causing the system to die unless you have APIC implemented in your system
