I’m builting a web OS for the first time to improve and test my programming skills

Ship #2

I fixed the window movement limit because it was glitching the OS, and I’ve added another game. At first, I thought it would be as difficult as the other one, but it was actually much easier.

I added one more game!!. It was easier to make than the “find the different emoji” game (maybe because I already knew some of the things I needed to do). I also fixed the window movement limit.

I made my first web OS using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. In the beginning, I hardly knew how to center elements inside a div, but with AI, I learned a lot of CSS properties to improve the OS style. I also found it difficult to develop some functions in JavaScript. It was like I knew what I wanted to do, but I didn’t have the knowledge to write it in JavaScript code, so I used AI to discover and understand JavaScript commands too.

At first, I thought the Weather icon was the most difficult thing I did. But when I had to make the window components draggable, I started to think, “Oh my God, I completely underestimated how hard this icon would be!” Nothing could convince me that there is something more difficult than making a movable window. After that, I started building the calculator; it was easier than I thought it would be, though I still faced a few challenges. Finally, I made the game. It was so annoying to do because bugs just wouldn’t stop appearing, especially with the emoji display and button positioning.

While making the OS, I thought about giving up so many times. But whenever something I wrote finally worked, I felt incredibly happy, and that motivated me to keep going. In the end, building this OS helped me train my patience and my resilience.

I FINISHED IT! Programming a game is sooo difficult at the beginning(I would be happier if I could say that it was going easier, but it stayed diffcult until the end), when I fixed something wrong (like emoji display) another one appeared, it was very, very annoying. However, when I see the game working I become so happy and proud. I can’t wait to make more icons for my OS
