<p>A few years later, I had found eyeOS, yet another WebOS, but that you could self-host this time. It had more applications available, but they were less interesting—the whole thing was more meant to be a demo of what apps you could create with it. They had something akin to an app store. I tried both their own demo instance and hosted my own, as I had learnt a bit more about webservers by that time.</p>
<p>I now tend to be wary of large piles of JavaScript like those as the current state of the JavaScript ecosystem tends to make everything worse, so I don't generally care much about the current attempts at making a new WebOS, like <a href="https://www.os-js.org/" target="_blank">OS.js</a>… unless they are fun.</p>
<p>Windows 93 is a pretty well done recreation of the Windows 95 user interface that started in 2014. It has a community that provided plenty of new apps to give the system a lot of content and fill it with weird jokes and "viruses". This is definitely not meant to be a replacement for a desktop OS like Desktoptwo or eyeOS attempted, and just a weird bundle of apps and games that mix the modern web and 30-year-old designs.</p>
<p>Their RSS feed gives some rare status updates about the project. I thought the project had been pretty much dead by now, since the feed had gotten no updates at all in a long while, but they announced that they working on a full rewrite. Version 3 will be open source, and it will be based on <a href="https://github.com/windows93dotnet/sys42" target="_blank">Sys42</a>, their own custom framework that skips one of the worst parts of modern JavaScript (Webpack) and allows building any web OS, not just a whimsy Windows 95 clone.</p>

<p>I am impressed by how much effort people sometimes put into these projects.</p>
