pastelOS #5 - 1.0.4 feat email

the messages/email app is now functional! if you click the scam link, it sends you to a fake blue screen page.

updates:

• finally fixed topbar font
• updated README file
• updates welcome menu text to match better with the OS theme and ui
• better hover indicator when selecting an app
• working user menu

i can’t believe it took me 12 hours to just make 3 apps 💔💔💔 i need to lock in for webOS 2

pastelOS #4 - (1.0.3 FIXED DRAG)

after many hours and days, i finally fixed it. the windows are draggable. what a journey

new features (alpha 1.0.3):

• text boxes are now transparent, inspired by liquid glass
• app icons are now presented in a list-type menu, similar to the cyberpunk 2077 menu in-game!!
• new background (old one was crusty)
• timer finally works
• DRAGGING WINDOWS FINALLY WORKS
• got rid of the goofy ahh ‘currently active’ text on the topbar

i dont even know how i got them to work. i made a thousand and one commits on github and somehow the stars aligned and my code is working. haha ha ha ha

it took me an embarrassingly long amount of time to fix this but like… as long as it works bro

pastelOS #3 - i hate github

years will be taken off my life for how long it took for me to fix my darn github page. i hate using it. i would’ve stuck to neocities if a git repo wasnt required for stardance projects.

anyways, i fixed the random merge issue i had where i accidentally opened too many branches and my dev branch and main branch were out of sync. im just gonna do everything on my main branch now. nuclear level threat incoming.

for some reason my github codespace preview is different than what shows up on my site so i gotta fix that. sucks because my window drag script finally works but it doesnt even show up properly 😭 ❓ but for now, im gonna take a break

• demo link (alpha 1.0.1: https://sodahaunted.github.io/pastelnet.os/)

pastelOS #2

still working on the os jam tutorial! got a pretty scuffed layout, the photos are wip for now i’m just playing around with the css to make it look nicer

heres the absolute alpha 1.0 version of pastelOS (its ugly ik)

• finally fixed the javascript file that didn’t let me close the window properly?? it was because my js file loaded faster than my index.html which was a huge problem
• this is why you code everything in one long index.html instead of breaking it up lmao

i want this to still be cyberpunk/vaporwave themed but im figuring out the ui and realizing it might be more advanced than what i know how to make

i made some physical sketches to try and find the theme and plan out apps i wanna make

• a type of fortune teller would be pretty cool based on an rng system, higher number results in a good fortune while low number results in a bad one
• maybe a scam email app based on those fake messages you get in cyberpunk 2077 (?)
• i want an mp3 player 100%, idk what songs to put on it tho maybe some 2022 drift phonk for old times sake 😭 😭 😭

TBH i dont even know what i’m going to name this OS yet, pastelnet seems kinda off but CyberOS already exists

its been over a week and im still not done this aaaa

pastelOS #1

playing around with github (first time using it) and css while finishing the jam tutorial

its coming along well but hopefully i can fix it so it looks better later
