I've seen multiple 'operating systems in Javascript', but this one is exceptionally well made. The only thing missing is a web browser so I can load the OS in the OS (in my OS).

Cool! This is the first time my project has appeared on hackernews.

Thanks for checking it out guys. It-s something I enjoy working on in my spare-time

Very impressive. Looks like my debian desktop.
