Hey DEV community! π
I've been building web apps for a while, and I noticed there was
no good place to discover and rate web-based OS projects β
those cool browser-based operating systems you can run without
installing anything.
So I built Web OS Community π
What is it?
A platform where you can:
- π Browse web-based OS projects (Windows XP, Ubuntu, macOS clones, and more)
- β Rate your favorites with a global rating system
- π·οΈ Filter by tags (webos, demo, linux, macos, windows...)
- π€ Submit your own web OS project via GitHub PR
Why I built this
The existing resources were scattered β some projects on GitHub,
some on random personal pages. I wanted a central hub where
developers could showcase their work and users could find these
cool experiments easily.
Tech stack
- Frontend: Vanilla JS / HTML / CSS (no frameworks, keeping it lightweight)
- Backend: Supabase (PostgreSQL + RLS policies)
- Auth: Custom RPC-based authentication
- Hosting: GitHub Pages + Cloudflare Workers
Some features
- Global rating system (one vote per user per project)
- Admin panel for managing submissions
- Tag-based filtering
- Dark mode UI π
