Today we finished WebOS 1 and got it ready as the final Stardance submission.

The project is now a complete browser desktop instead of a rough prototype. It has a Windows-style desktop surface, custom desktop icons, a taskbar, a Start menu, draggable and resizable windows, minimize/close controls, focus layering, snapping, persistent layouts, and a public boot sequence that does not block visitors behind a password gate.

The custom apps are also in place:

  • Terminal with hardcoded commands like system info, ls, whoami, ping, and an easter egg.
  • System Monitor with animated fake CPU, RAM, uptime, graph traces, and themed process rows.
  • WordPad-style blog reader that opens copied Markdown posts from the portfolio site.
  • Profile, Research, Contact, and Welcome windows that make the OS feel like a personal portfolio system instead of a generic guide clone.

The final polish pass focused on making the project feel shippable. I replaced generic letter icons with custom SVG icons, tightened the taskbar and Start menu, checked window behavior across desktop, tablet, and mobile widths, tuned the animations, and verified that the static export works from the generated out/ folder.

The deployed site is live at:

At this point, WebOS 1 meets the mission requirements: it has multiple draggable windows, a distinct visual identity, extra features beyond the guide, no real login gate, and a public link for reviewers. The README now points to the live site, and the devlogs are ready for the Stardance portal.
