chicagOS Devlog 6-

A lot of progress has been made! I’ve been waiting for my ship to be approved for WebOS1, which it just was! Yay! But in the last 4 days, I have made a lot of changes, so prepare yourselves.

#1 - The UI has had major improvements! I went down the W3Schools rabbit hole and added a bunch of things to make the UI look cleaner, including the first animated element of the UI!

#2- Paint app! - I added the paint app, and it currently has pretty basic functionality. You can draw, change colors, change brush size, erase, and clear the canvas. I plan to add a save feature soon. (The button currently doesn’t do anything.)

#3- I WILL FIGURE OUT THIS MIND MAP APP! I fixed a few things, but some things still aren’t working. Currently, lines don’t get drawn past the root node, and I think it has something to do with the ID hierarchy? We will see.

#4- I added a feature of the desktop header that rotates through quotes about Chicago! It has the same animated background as the welcome window.

That’s it for now; hopefully I can continue to improve the UI and the paint app!
