Devlog 5 – UI Overhaul & System Polish

I made Space OS feel like a real desktop operating system instead of just a collection of windows. Rather than adding more apps, I focused on improving the user experience and polishing the entire interface.
What’s New
Redesigned the dock with a modern glassmorphism look, smoother hover animations, and active app indicators.
Standardized the design of every application by giving all windows a consistent header, borders, colors, buttons, and typography.
Added a fully functional Settings application with wallpaper customization and system information.
Implemented a custom right-click context menu for quick desktop actions such as opening Settings, creating a new note, and changing the wallpaper.
Improved the desktop boot sequence with a startup screen and smoother transitions.
Added support for multiple wallpapers that can be changed directly from inside the operating system.
Upgraded the Notes app with automatic saving using local storage, so notes remain even after refreshing or reopening the OS.
Added Ctrl + S support inside the Notes app along with a “Notes Saved” notification for a more desktop-like experience.
Improved window management with proper dragging, window focus, and layering so active windows always stay on top.
Polish & Improvements
Unified the color palette across every application.
Refined the overall desktop layout and spacing.
Improved button styling, inputs, and window appearance.
Fixed numerous UI inconsistencies throughout the operating system.
Continued optimizing the codebase while preparing the remaining apps for final polish.
