I made a web os based off nature called Solar OS. It was challenging, but I learnt a lot along the way including how functions work, new css variable things, a little bit on how javascript works, and more.

It has features such as a working browser, my portfolio, and more. To view the full features, check out the readme on the github linked. I also made some custom graphics myself.

You may notice an incomplete app called “Solz App Installer”. Don’t worry about that, I’m going to follow the Web OS 2 guide to complete it.

Thanks for spending your time reviewing this :)

Changed appearances, added a browser (lion browser), partially made an app installer (Solz App Installer), made the portfolio app actually display my portfolio, made the access desktop button work, and more! :yay:

I’m not sure if I’ve said this already, but I’ve also hooked it up to my custom domain on github pages so if you click on my project, you can view it! However I’m not sure how it handled the new update because it seems glitched, but I’ll give it some time to update before I try fixing it.

Made some logos, fixed bugs, made some changes to the bottom bar, added the smallz.dev desktop app, and more!

I struggled a bit because I called the ID “portfolioClose” in my script.js, but in the html I forgot that it was case sensitive and wrote it as “portfolioclose”. All sorted now though. :)

Also the code is now deployed on a subdomain of my website!

Completed part 3 of the Jam.

  1. Fixed an issue with the bottom bar glitching (which was caused due to sizing).

  1. Added my own custom made close, drag, and full screen buttons (full screen doesn’t work yet though).

  1. I’ve made the windows draggable, closable, and openable. To open the welcome window, you need to click the Solar OS text on the bottom bar currently, but I plan to change it next update.

Thank you! :yay:

Completed part 2 of the Jam. In this update, I’ve finished the time (which refreshes every sec), adde d a top bar, added a background, added a nice looking border, and maybe some other things I’m forgetting as well.

It ended up being a lot simpler than i thought it would be to get to this part.

Thanks for reading :yay:

Made it look a little more nice, including adding an image, changing the layout slightly, and fixing the previously terrible looking button. I kept changing the CSS to make it way better in my opinion.

Now I’m done with step one of the jam, moving onto stage 2.

Also published it to github now, so you can see the source code and the commits!

I’ll try to commit every devlog from now on, but sometimes i might forget.

Worked on the basics and the FAQ. I’m going to move the FAQ into my welcome message later but yeah. Just for the first 15m i did basically a set up.
