Glad that you like the ArozOS project :)

I still remember Firefox OS as a mobile OS instead of a full desktop interface, and it is also one of the design concepts I studied before I started working on this system. This is the reason that I implemented the web desktop for mobile in ArozOS as well.

I guess now you should have the required skills to make your own "OS in the browser". Maybe you can consider give it a go again after all these years?

Haha I wish! Now that I have enough skills to figure out how to build it, I don't get enough free time 😅. I tried building an actual OS from scratch using an awesome tutorial by Phillip Opperman but it was too much work. Maybe if I get super excited about this again I might give it a go. Until then I might just find some hobbyist OSes and contribute to them.

We shall see!
