CatOS

This is my very own OS that can be run in the web!

Ship #2

I made a catOS, its cat-style OS, more details, what its all about you can find in my 1. ship or in readme file. I added these features:
Theme Templates (catTemp): A dedicated customization window allowing users to switch between four cozy cat-inspired background themes (Coffee, Cat Car, Coffee Beans, and Barista Cat). Features high-quality image previews with crisp edge rendering and persistent preference saving using localStorage.

Tic-Tac-Toe Mini-game: A playable, built-in widget that brings an interactive game directly to the desktop environment for quick entertainment.

Interactive Loading Screen: A custom boot overlay featuring catOS branding, animated dot spinners, a dynamic percentage progress bar, and a subtle “Tap anywhere to open” prompt that allows entry once loading hits 100%.

This project was vetted by Shipwrights and is now up for voting. You can ship again after making more updates.

Shipwright walkthrough

Ship #1

I built catOS, a cozy, cat-themed web operating system using HTML, CSS, and Vanilla JavaScript. The most challenging part was programming the draggable windows and calculating their boundaries so they never get lost off-screen or behind the taskbar. I am really proud of the cohesive coffee-inspired aesthetic and the catNote app, which automatically saves data using localStorage. To test it, simply open the live link, try dragging the windows around, write a note, and play some music in the catOfy app!

I have added the closing, opening and moving actions, its very cool and interesting, new thing to me. Upgraded the welcome window with X button for closing and a dark strip for moving it around. I have decided to move the footer down, cuz its OS not a web. And I added google link.
