Devlog 3 & Final:
The project is done! Improved draggable window system with better focus and z-index handling. Added 2 more windows with an extra functionality as stated in the guide. Finished the UI. It should work on phone too.
Following up on the desktop layout in WebOS, I’ve added real interactivity to my project. Windows are now fully draggable across the screen, and the red close buttons successfully close them. With three apps completely done, the core window management works. Next up, I’ll be making some more apps!
Started the project today.
Got the basic structure down — a desktop div, a window div, and a title bar. Wrote my first bit of CSS to make it sit in the middle of the screen. Then the fun part: making it actually drag.
The first attempt sent the window flying off the screen immediately. Fixed that, and suddenly it was working.
One moveable window. That’s it. I will add more features!
