WildOS
It was so cool to complete the WebOS 1 JAM. I made WildOS, a web-based but nature-themed OS.
Thanks to MeowOS for inspiring me to build one too. Also thanks to the WebOS Guide that helped me understand what to build, and thanks to the team that built that guide.
So what I built is a nature-themed OS called WildOS.
It is fully nature-themed and has some awesome features. This one is web playable, so anyone can test it directly in the browser.
I added 5 apps to it. The first one is WildNotes, where you can write your notes. The second one is a music player that lets you play some cool music. The third one is Files, which is just a simple file window. The fourth one is Settings, where you can change the theme. And the fifth one is WILDO, WildOS’s personal assistant, but it is always unreachable.
I also added a booting window, text animations, a live clock, customizable themes, and draggable windows.
This is my second WebOS. The first one gave me an idea of how a WebOS could work, and while building WildOS I learned more about JavaScript, especially dragging windows and making the booting screen.
I also took a little inspiration from macOS for the dock and some of the icons, but I tried to make the rest of the design my own and keep everything around the nature theme.
It was really interesting to build and I learned a lot from it.
That’s it for WebOS 1.
let’s see what I can build for WebOS 2.
