This is my very own OS that can be run in the web!

I’ve looked at some post-use apps made by some users and fixed some bugs:

  • if the icon is invalid it’s replaced by a default “gears”
  • app doesn’t allow blank titles anymore - they get renamed “App ” if left blank
    Now I’m debating wether or not to manually remove junk apps - test blobs made by some users just for testing the platform

Here is the newest version of my webOS! https://clumsy261.github.io/andOS/
Among the new features from the first part there are:
-a new notes app
-a new code editor app (for custom user scripts)
-an actual app store for user made apps
-resizeable windows (made easy by just using resizeElement(card) in any custom script)
-ping pong app (vibe coded but made to be a proof of concept)
-secret easter egg add (check out what the andOS name actually means)

This was a really nice experience, now I really understand most html, css and js concepts (not many courses offer that).

Hopefully this will get some attention and users will start building actual apps. :D (come to think of it it’s just a fancy server for testing web code)

I just wrote a decent README so, It’s finished!!! :D (for the 17th time)
The app store isn’t very rich right now, but I plan on adding more apps if users request any

First app is up! :D
Made a ping-pong game (mostly ai slop) … BUT I KNOW how it works, had to make the game pause when hidden and resume when the window gets clicked.

The hard part is done. AndOS now has a code editor, “compiler” and publisher ~ and all bugs that I knew of are gone :D

He he hell yeah It’s done.
A working demo for the submitting apps is done, now any user can actually create their own app inside my webos (for real this time)
I’ll add some user-friendly documentation soon on the prebuilt functions and more.

I have succesfully made a custom script for custom apps. Now an entire window can be opened on my page with an object like this.
I only need to add two things, one local interface to actually submit the code from a user, and then a public app store.

Today was a good day, I finished the notes app earlier (not sure it was today) aaaand implemented a new feature I wanted for some time.
Now every day my os has a new background, the nasa apod background! I also added an info window that includes the name and info about the image. I got the idea from windows back when I had to use it without a license and this was the default.

Completed the notes app!
New feature:
Apps can now be resized properly, since the resize function returns an event-target that can be used in the custom app script.

I’ve implemented two new functions!!
The resizeElement initializez a div in the bottom right corner of the window. It acts as a handle to resize the window. It has no practical use I can think of, aside from user experience.
And then there is the overlay function, I forgot to put this in from the original guide but now this allows each app to be put in front of the others when interacted with.

I made a custom webOS using the guide offered by stardance. It was really simple, thinking back on it. I added a template for future apps and made it more efficient with file sorting.
I’m planning on adding an actual window creator app, where a user can write any code they want to compile into the OS as an actual app.

Officially made a user-friendly (kinda) platform to add apps, I will now go on to some actual apps and I’m done

Finally made the apps fully modular, any js script can be made by anyone, I have to make a platform now to upload such scripts

Finally made the moving tab work, I have a great plan for this.
I’m thinking of changing the background daily, and to put a “find out more about this image tab”, that’s basically the apod api
