My very own WebOS

  • 4 Devlogs
  • 2 Total hours

A detective-themed WebOS where every file is a clue and every app helps solve a case.

Ship #2

After receiving feedback, I focused on polishing the experience and improving usability. Added a complete README, fixed application icons so every app opens correctly, introduced the Crime Map application, improved window layouts with card-based designs, and added scrolling support for better navigation.

Current applications include Case Files, Evidence Locker, Suspect Database, and Crime Map, all accessible through draggable desktop windows inside the detective-themed operating system.

DetectiveOS is now more complete, better documented, and much closer to the vision of a full investigation platform.

The Game Is Afoot.

# DetectiveOS 🕵️

I built **DetectiveOS**, a detective-themed web operating system with multiple draggable windows and investigation tools.

## Features
- Welcome screen and detective login flow
- Live desktop clock
- Case Files app
- Evidence Locker app
- Crime Map app
- Draggable application windows
- Dark detective-themed interface

## Challenges
The biggest challenge was making the windows draggable while keeping the interface organized and responsive. I also spent time designing a consistent detective-style UI across all applications.

## What I'm Proud Of
I'm proud that the project evolved from a simple webpage into a functional WebOS with multiple applications and its own unique theme.

## How To Test
1. Open the website.
2. Enter the DetectiveOS desktop.
3. Open the Case Files, Evidence Locker, and Crime Map apps.
4. Drag windows around the desktop and explore the interface.

The project includes several custom features beyond the guide and has no password requirement for testing.
