Devlog #04

Today I made big changes in the project.

Devlog #32

I’m tired of working on this, I try one thing and it doesn’t work I try another even worse but I’m working to launch the zap for linux I just don’t have test packages or packages to release if any wants to launch their package on the zap let me know.

Devlog #31

After some time, I finally had time to work on ZAP again.

Today I started fixing some bugs in ZAP, tested the installation script, and added the installation instructions to the README on the main page.

ZAP is still in beta, and I know some things don’t work yet, but I want to sleep.

I tested the installer on Debian-based systems, but I haven’t tested it on Arch, Alpine, or other obscure distros yet.

My linux test PC specs are shown above, and the error is also shown above.

#Devlog #30
Updating the zap web page for the new version.

Devlog #29

Today I finally finished the Linux installation script!

Devlog #28

So today, I started writing the installation script for Linux.

Sorry if I don’t give many updates school just started today!

Devlog #27 Today, I run zap on Linux and lost my sanity with the complexity of using Linux on an old PC and all the configuration. The hello test package will be available this afternoon. Thanks for reading!

Devlog #26

Today, I changed the code so that ZAP can have a Linux version. I spent an hour trying to install pip on my Linux PC, but I couldn’t get it to work. I switched to another PC, and now I’m going to test it.

Devlog #25

Making small changes to the code in the past days to launch the version 0.7.0-beta.

Devlog #24

Today, I made some small changes to the project. The next thing I’m going to add is a system to check whether the local index is outdated and update it if necessary.

Devlog #23

Today, I correct a error in the launcher system code and I tried to create a 3 packages to show who it works but they don’t work.

Devlog #22

Today, yesterday I added a function that checks if all packages / dependencies are in the list to be downloaded, also adding the author variable to the database, and some minor changes.
Thanks for reading! 😊

Devlog #21
Updating the README so I can release version 0.7 tomorrow!

Devlog #20

Today, with the help of ChatGPT, I created the dependency system.

The ZAP can now resolve package dependencies and find the correct versions required by each package. It can also handle multiple versions of the same dependency and create launchers with the required dependencies added to the PATH.

This means different packages can use different versions of the same dependency without conflicts.

Devlog #04
Starting to make a calculator app. and adding more icons.

Devlog #19

Today, with the help of ChatGPT, I created a system to check if a dependency’s version is compatible with the program. For example, if a dependency is specified as dependency@>=1.0.0, the system will analyze the required version and check whether the available version is compatible.

Devlog #03
Today I added the incons and the about the os app.

Devlog #02
Today I added a start menu and other things in the back. The next step is add apps to the web os

DevLog #01

Today, I started developing WEB-DOS with Interface 85.

The system is still very raw, and it is heavily inspired by Microsoft’s Windows 95 interface.
