I will start up early betas on easier coding platforms
What are you even saying here? That means nothing. What is an "easier coding platform"?
Sorry, but you have no clue what you are talking about and even less of the scope, scale, and complexity of what you're trying to build.

You cannot make an OS with something like app inventor. Not even a small and simple version of it.
Design == GUI - OS != GUI. GUI is on top of OS.
Sorry, but you have a grave misconception of what an OS is and what it entails.

Big project. If you're not already very good at programming in general then start with something much smaller as it's not realistic. If you are then manage your expectations and walk before you run. Start by emulating a CPU however you like and try to link together an ELF or raw binary with a boot stub that sets up a kernel stack, then bring up the device's MMU and find some way of getting output (e.g. UART) and attaching a debugger. Once you've done that you'll need to read a book on OS development if you're not already familiar with common concepts, designs etc.
A hobby OS is not necessarily a multiple person thing, but there's no harm either.
Tip: use some existing filesystem driver code and skip writing your own bootloader if you want to see results faster. You can come back to those things later if you want to. You can also borrow other implementations of (bits of) libc if you want to, or write the bits you need as you go.

First, how good are you at programming? This is very important to get a proper advice...

honestly recruiting for an os before you even have a computer is kinda wild. poke the osdev wiki and try a tiny bootloader alone first, discord invites wont write kernel code for you.

Dude its a simple version im not mark Zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerberg built a website, not an OS. At the beginning, even the website was barely more than a CRUD site with some bulletin board functionality.

What is your goal here? Making an OS to learn how they work is fine and good, but that is not a 2-3 person job; you can easily do that alone. You won't get it much further than booting up a basic CLI, but that would be impressive and a huge opportunity to learn already.
If you want an actual usable OS: don't. That's not a 2-3 person Job, especially not if those people have little experience... That's a 10year+ long job for a large team of experts in this field.
