Devlog #14

Hello everyone!
New version of HamOS v1.6 just rolled out!

What have I added or fixed?

Bugs:

Added:

• “current open apps bar” animations!
• New system of indexes.html and fodler structures!
• A whole new STYLES system!!

The boring part:

I had idea of different styles a long time back in time. So I implemented them in this update. You can select what style you want and it will apply. The new selection menu will be more polished in the next update. I promise.

If YOU (yes, you) want to make a style for hamos, please click the link in the selection menu and dm me! I would be very happy!

With the animations of “CAOB”. It was a little difficult. I need to make the timing right, make it launch or not close when app is still open. It had its bugs when in development, but it should be working flawlessly now.

The opening of community styles for HamOS!

Hello everyone.

Today im announcing that YOU, can create styles for HamOS, that will be added!

If anyone wants to make a style (please do, I will be very happy), dm me on slack @luksus with the files, etc. (View the before last attached photo.)

Everything you will need, will be in the template that I made for you (dimensions, info, restricted areas, etc.)

Please download the template ( https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1wteLNYUOm6-3gt77MpcvDc4UFpRlmfD8?usp=sharing ). You can also view the finished example.

Devlog #13

Hello everyone!

What did I add in this update?

Animations for “Currently opened apps bar”! And delay for the apps to launch (just like in a real life).

When you open app, the little icon BOUNCES (video in attachment).

This update isn’t live right now and wont be until v1.6.

Devlog #12

Hello everyone!
New version of HamOS v1.5 just rolled out!

What have I added or fixed?

Bugs:

• cursor: pointer; bug fix (entire desktop was clickable)
• cursor: pointer; bug fix (entire app rows were clickable, not only apps)

Added:

• Widgets!
• Current apps opened bar!
• New settings feature
• New QnA

The boring part:

In this version, I had an idea to add widgets (because I loved widgets in Windows Vista).
Then I needed content for the widgets. I wanted clock, but I was lazy to create some clock, so I just used clock widget iframe.

Some people dont have to like the widgets, so I added a new option in settings to hide them.

And with all of the apps opened, it was a little bit difficult to navigate between them, so I added “Current apps opened bar”.
When app is opened, it shows its icon in the bar, which can be clicked for focusing the app window.
The order of app icons in the bar is fixed, because I was too lazy to implement some kind of order-system.

Devlog #11

Hello everyone!

A little devlog after a long time of inactivity.

The break was amazing. Been to Bulgaria. Nice sea they’ve got.

And now to HamOS.

I am currently working on widgets, (little inspiration taken from my beloved Windows Vista).
I am too lazy to create some clock, so I just used clock widget iframe. ( )

The version of the HamOS with a one widget added is live now, but it is in beta and not polished. (Something like a developer version of iOS)

I had a lot of ideas for HamOS, but I don’t know if I will have enough time to add all of them.

That is all. Happy coding everyone!

oh my god. What am I even publishing?

Before checking the code for other bugs, etc.. I shipped it, because I was very excited and wanted to get item that I very want.

I checked on HamOS today if I didn’t overlook anything and I saw that newly opened app windows weren’t in the center of the crt. So I changed multiple % values.

And then I noticed that Welcome and Introduction app windows weren’t getting focused when they are clicked.

I left welcome app and introduction app in one div, because of one < /div >.

After fixing that, the app windows weren’t in the center of the crt AGAIN. So I had to revert every % value that I changed. (Thank god for github commits)

So this was a little log of fixing ONE < /DIV > that caused these issues…

Happy coding everyone.. happy happy.

Hey everyone!
Quick fix happened.

On some screens, there was a bug that the icons weren’t aligned properly.

My dumb ah put row div in a row div in a row div. The best code you will ever see. Had to change so many % values. But it is over now.

Fix is now live (thankfully, before reviewers could rate it).

Devlog #10

Hello everyone!

Just published HamOS v1.4, version mainly about resolution scaling and small fixes.

In v1.4 was alongside added Settings app that has personalization features (primary colors and set wallpapers).

And if you will notice, a little sticky paper was added that will help visitors start up HamOS.

After this Devlog I will ship HamOS Again! I want more opinions :> (and stardust tooo–.)

That is all. Happy coding everyone!

Devlog #9

omg this was a nightmare.

Hey everyone!

Just wanted to share that I finally somehow fixed scaling of HamOS!

Previously, only 1920x1080 was supported, but now, 720p HD —> 4K! Yippie! : b

Now I just need to add one more feature and this update will be live in the next version of HamOS v1.4.

The biggest issue I encountered while making this was also applying it to the top bar. I also somehow broke a bug, bug-feature, that the top bar is always under app windows, now, app windows are under the top bar.

Happy coding everyone! Ham out. –hehe

Devlog #8

Hey everyone! HamOS v1.3 is here.

This is everything that happened in this update:

The new Help app contains some problems that people issue with HamOS. In the style of QnA. If you have any questions or problems with HamOS, please comment under one of my devlogs.

And the new HamOS To Go tool does something like Windows To Go tool. Windows To Go creates Windows on usb drive that you can plug into any computer and run your version of Windows. The HamOS To Go tool opens a new tab that will have only the HamOS, without the crt monitor. I added this feature to help some people with bugs or if they only want the HamOS without the crt monitor.

And a new shortcut for Wikipedia.

I was also playing with margins, so icons, divs look aligned.

I used the existing icon of app Introduction for the new app Help and designed a new icon for it. I had idea in my mind, that well, if it is an introduction, it is like connecting people (or hamsters) no? I remembered old nokia loading screen and was inspired by it (the hands).

And at the end, I added a little bit more info to the githubs README file.

After the break, I had a whole set of ideas that I wrote down. One of them is Theme app suggested from anonymous that rated 2nd ship.

Sadly, I have to fix a big issue first and that is screen scaling D: HamOS is only fully supported on 1920x1080 for now. Others have to workaround by scaling the site bigger or smaller.

That is it. Happy coding everyone!

Devlog #4

Hey everyone!

A lot of this update wasn’t about adding huge features, just one app and fixing some small things.

I added a Photos app, so Džambule finally has somewhere to keep his favorite pictures. 🐹📸
You can also click individual photo and view it in full resolution / quality.

Also fyi, the icons are drawn by me. It is intentionally bad, don’t think that I cant draw. hehe..

I’m thinking about adding a very lite version of Start button. We will see if that will happen. Whould be cool.

I’m also wondering how does stardances algorithm work. I’ve seen one devlog, that had one sentence and got hundreds of views. Hope algorithm will notice me.

If the Start button will happen, then I’m probably gonna ship my HamOS to the stars.

Not technically a devlog, but

Devlog #3
Hey everyone!

It struck me out of nowhere, that I am making a HamOS. OS for / about hamster. So should not it be about my hamster? Its logic.

So, I personalized it to my hamster Džambule.
You will by in my hamsters computer (please do not break anything).

In the next update, I am thinking that I will make apps like Notes and Photos, that will already have something in them (Džambule’s notes or photos)

Thanks everyone for reading this and happy coding!

Devlog #2

Hey everyone!

Heres what I added to my HamOS:

• Draggable windows
• Bar at top of a window with X
• Closing and opening apps/windows
• Desktop icons
• Only welcome window shows up when page is loaded
• Window focusing…
• Etc.

It looks very nice in this state right now. Little bit scared of part 5 in the tutorial. I have an idea for the app, but I just hope that it wont be too hard.

Thanks everyone for reading this devlog and maybe visiting my HamOS?

Bye!

Hello everyone!

Just started working on my WebOS, that will be called HamOS. No, not ham, like ham, but ham like ham-ster :D.

The tutorial was super helpful even though it didn’t look like at first.

This HamOS will be mainly customized to my hamster Džambule. I even added a gif of him :>.

That was enough coding for the day. Finished 2 parts. Thanks stardance for this, for everything and for the STICKERS!!.

Out.
