Devlog 3 for ArctosOS
Part 3 has been completed! Over the past few days, I encountered a problem where if I dragged the window to the right, the width of the window would decrease; if I dragged the window to the left, the width of the window would increase – despite the window not being near the periphery of the OS screen. After quite a long time of troubleshooting, I realized that I needed to set a fixed width, or the code would automatically resize the width depending on position.
Part 3 had a variety of tasks to manipulate the welcome window, including dragging, closing (in other words, setting display to “none”) and opening.
Over the next few days, I will learn how to create apps on my new OS!
Devlog 2
I recently spent time finishing the 1st and 2nd parts of the PersonalOS, where I created a welcome screen with an image background relating to me, and added the time (where it would update every second).
Part 3 next!!
Some changes from the original guide:
- I moved the “Top Bar” in Part 2 to the bottom by setting
bottom: 0;in the div style that contains the bar. - I added the site’s favicon and altered the name of the site by changing it in
<head>. - I used multiple different divs to centre various elements on the site.
Over the past few days, I have been working toward creating the welcome screen for my OS! I decided since FRC (the FIRST Robotics Competition) is such an integral part of who I am, to focus on communicating my team and what we do yet again. In my OS so far, I have some images and links attached, and soon, I will be able to style these to make them appear better on my OS.
