🌊 OceanOS 2.0 — A Bigger, Better, More Polished Experience

OceanOS 2.0 is here! This update brings several new applications, major improvements to the Ocean Store, visual polish, bug fixes, an improved boot experience, and a brand-new file management experience integrated directly into the website.

🌤️ New Weather App

OceanOS now has its own dedicated Weather app! You can now check the weather directly from your OceanOS desktop alongside the new Calendar app.

Both applications have also been integrated into the Ocean Store, making them part of the growing OceanOS ecosystem.

🛍️ Install and Uninstall Apps from the Ocean Store

The Ocean Store is now more interactive than ever.

Users can now:

• Install applications directly from the Ocean Store
• Uninstall applications they no longer want
• Manage their OceanOS applications more dynamically

This brings OceanOS closer to feeling like a real operating system with its own application management system.

📁 Brand-New Files App

OceanOS now includes a new Files app integrated directly into the website.

The Files app connects with the project’s GitHub files and provides a more organized way to explore the files and content associated with the OceanOS project.

This is another step toward making OceanOS feel like a complete desktop environment rather than just a collection of applications.

🚀 Improved Boot Screen

The OceanOS boot screen has been redesigned and polished to provide a smoother and more professional startup experience.

Improvements include:

• A cleaner and more modern design
• Improved animations and transitions
• Better visual polish
• A more refined first impression when starting OceanOS

🖥️ Visual Improvements & A More Polished Look

OceanOS 2.0 received a significant visual refresh.

Updates include:

• A new and more polished wallpaper experience
• Updated icons
• Improved overall visual consistency
• Better spacing and positioning
• A cleaner, more refined desktop interface

The goal was to make OceanOS feel more cohesive, modern, and enjoyable to use.

🔍 Bug Fixes & Improvements

Several previous issues have also been fixed in this update.

🐛 Dock Magnification Fix

The dock hover magnification effect has been improved and the previous magnification bug has been fixed.

The dock should now respond more smoothly when hovering over icons.

📌 Improved Z-Indexing

Window layering has been improved to make sure applications appear in the correct order when interacting with the desktop.

This should make overlapping windows and app interactions feel much more natural.

🔎 Search Improvements

The search system has also been fixed and improved, along with several other bugs from previous versions.
