I made Aqua OS, a futuristic underwater web operating system built around a glass-style interface.
The biggest challenge was making the desktop feel like an actual OS instead of just a normal webpage. I worked on draggable application windows, the desktop layout, glass UI, and making the different apps work together.
I’m most proud of the underwater civilization theme and the way the glass interface works with the background. I also added features beyond the basic guide, including Aqua Launcher, Settings, Calculator, Ocean Map, Depth, and the Aqua Drift mini-game.
To test it, open the demo and try the different applications. You can drag the windows around and explore the desktop and apps.
