Devlog — Day 2 💻

Today , I wanted to level up VasuOS!

What I built

• 💻 VasuOS Terminal
• ⌨️ help command
• 🧹 clear command
• 📢 echo command with arguments
• ❓ Unknown command handling
• 🕐 Live system clock
• 🪟 Toggleable maximize / restore
• 📦 Split Terminal and Clock into separate JS files

What I learned

• Basic command parsing with split()
• How to handle command arguments
• JavaScript modules
• Using Date() for a live clock
• More DOM manipulation

Problems 💀

• echo vasu was being treated as one whole command 😭
• Terminal output formatting got weird
• script.js started getting pretty big
• file:// caused CORS issues while testing locally
• Had to switch to type="module" for JS imports
• 🍌 – Easter egg: banana!

Next 🚀

• Add more Terminal commands
• Add window focus
• Polish the desktop UX
• Make VasuOS feel more like an actual OS 🖥️
