Open Web Desktop

We can help ya integrating what you already did if you like

`@owdproject/app-twitch-chat` has been released

Will this be the start of a new series of modules?
github.com/owdproject/app-twitch-chat

`@owdproject/theme-gnome` has been updated to 0.1.0

It's now compatible with Open Web Desktop v3.1.4
github.com/owdproject/theme-gnome

You can host your web desktop and, well,
from there it's up to you. So basically, yes!

There is still a lot that can be done

#javascript #typescript #opensource #webdesktop

Please note that this is not a finished product, nor a one-person show.

The project is still in its early stages, freshly rewritten from scratch, and its real potential depends on community involvement. The core logic and architecture should be reviewed and refined by multiple contributors

`@owdproject/core` has been updated to 3.1.4

This update includes general improvements, bug fixes, and support for the filesystem module recently integrated in the Windows 95 theme
github.com/owdproject/c...

`@owdproject/module-fs` has been released

Mount .zip files, create memory or persistent storage, and interact with the filesystem just like you would in Node.js, thanks to ZenFS
github.com/owdproject/m...

Each window with its metadata can eventually be broadcast via #atproto Jetstream to update real-time data about whoever is on your desktop

Here is the module! We'll move it soon to @tangled.sh
github.com/atproto-os/m...

Definitely! Someone should totally start that.
We’d be happy to help out on our Discord too

Web operating systems are always fascinating.

Will this be your call? We're about to release the File System module, and there's still a lot to be done. If you'd like to take a look or contribute, it would be truly appreciated!

Once configured and logged in via #ATProtocol, every windowed app and its metadata will be synced to your Personal Data Server

And today, we’ve migrated three repositories to @tangled.sh

The experiment goes by the name Web Desktops on the AT Protocol, and it’s exactly what it sounds like #atproto #atdev

Over the past few months, we created a set of experimental modules for the AT Protocol under a GitHub organization called atproto-os

It's a great and low-friction playground!

`@owdproject/app-about` has been updated to 0.1.2

You can now completely override icons
github.com/owdproject/a...

They are watching us 🛸 @microcosm.blue

We got web desktops on #atproto as well

Well, this is an example: dxlliv.github.io/desktop

Someone is actually streaming music using Open Web Desktop and some AT Protocol modules specifically designed for this use case

You might wonder: what's the point of having a YouTube module when you can just use YouTube directly from your desktop?

We've also published 4 new apps for the upcoming update:
YouTube, SoundCloud, and a basic audio / video player

Explorer app + File System module on Open Web Desktop with the WIndows 95 theme

The Explorer app in `@owdproject/theme-win95` is coming together nicely with the File System module #windows95 #webdesktop

For manual configurations, you can edit `owd.config.ts`
now located under `/desktop/owdconfig.ts`

On the latest workspace setup, you can now install apps with:
𝘰𝘸𝘥 𝘪𝘯𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘭-𝘢𝘱𝘱 @𝘰𝘸𝘥𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘫𝘦𝘤𝘵/𝘢𝘱𝘱-𝘵𝘰𝘥𝘰

Nx workspaces have been implemented both on the client and in the template used when you run `npm create owd`. Much more structured

A new version of Open Web Desktop is out!

Some early posts said 0.0.9 but that was just social media chaos 😅 Actually, it was 3.0.0-alpha.9 and now we’re already at v3.1.1

A monorepo will be useful during development, saving time on installing specific app, theme or module dependencies and adjusting paths
