My very own WebOS - Stardance

Ship #2

Hi! I’d like to request a re-review for my WebOS project and clarify the setup and AI usage. First, I’d like to describe the project again. It is a web-based operating system I named makOS. Built in the style of Arch Linux, it includes applications such as a calendar, calculator, notes, and the game Snake.

Regarding the AI aspect: I engineered and built this project by myself with help of ai assistant. However, when I tried to deploy it to GitHub, the build failed. To fix the deployment, I imported the project into Lovable purely to resolve the build environment and workflow issues, instructing it not to alter the webOS logic itself. Lovable fixed the deployment, but automatically added a tag to the README.md claiming the entire project was generated by Lovable from scratch.

I wanted to clarify this because, while I used AI as my coding assistant to build makOS, the project was fully directed, designed, and debugged by me, and Lovable was only used at the end to fix the GitHub Pages pipeline.

My makOS project was rejected due to alleged use of “one-click AI.” I just want to clarify that this is not true; I’ll provide more details in the ship info.

I created a web-based operating system styled after Arch Linux. It includes applications such as notes, a calendar, a calculator, and the game Snake.

I finished the first version of the project makOS. Its browser-based Web OS is built using Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and pnpm. The core architecture uses components like Desktop.tsx and Window.tsx to manage the environment and window states, supporting drag-and-drop, focus layer management, minimizing, and maximizing. Built-in applications running inside the system include a Terminal emulator, a Snake game, a text notepad, a calculator, and a calendar.

This is first devlog from my project makOS. I started making some first main files. My plan is to build OS in style of linux arch. BTW I use arch.
