i had a look at the guide, and decided that i don’t want to use z-index
instead, i use ObservableCollection.Move to bring a window to the front
window state stays intact because i specify @key
changing the window order has a slight side effect: the task manager (taskbar) is also reordered; ordering by Id fixes this issue (IDs are v7 Guids which start with a timestamp)

---

the welcome screen is now more descriptive

---

implemented the meta menu (start menu), it’s pretty simple atm, only includes desktop programs

---

the task manger now shows which window is focused (topmost and not minimized)

---

added a notepad with a simple textarea element
it saves data to localStorage

---

code is horrible but does it matter? x3

deployed to GitHub Pages, hopefully this will qualify for the mission
