...It essentially wraps an emulator — preconfigured to boot Windows 95 — inside a user-friendly app built with web technologies so developers and hobbyists can explore the look and feel of that classic OS without needing legacy hardware or complicated setup. Users can interact with familiar UI elements like the Start menu, File Explorer, and retro applications in a sandboxed environment that evokes early personal computing. Beyond being a playful trip down memory lane, the project demonstrates how emulation can be packaged using modern frameworks & how legacy operating systems can be encapsulated as distributable desktop experiences. It’s become an example of how software preservation and creative programming can intersect, inspiring others to bring historic systems to life.

...The interface is highly polished, with support for themes, animations, and even hidden easter eggs that mimic the quirks of the original Windows 98 experience. While not a true emulator, it effectively simulates the user interface and behavior of the OS in a browser environment.

...It simulates essential hardware components such as CPU, memory, VGA graphics, sound cards, network adapters, and storage controllers. Designed for both experimentation and embedding, v86 can be integrated into web apps or used as a standalone virtual machine environment. Overall, it provides a powerful way to explore operating systems, retro computing, and low-level system behavior directly from a web browser.

...One of its most notable features is the ability to compile and execute C programs inside the browser, effectively turning it into a fully functional development environment. It includes networking support and interactive terminal interfaces, allowing users to interact with the emulated system in real time. The project is widely recognized as a proof of concept for browser-based operating system emulation and has been used in educational contexts to demonstrate low-level computing concepts.

PC Emulator that runs inside a JavaScript environment. Demonstration can be seen booting FreeDOS at http://pc-emulator.appspot.com (useful for running old DOS shareware games) and graphical Linux at http://linuxjsemu.appspot.com/ (rather slowly). Runs best in Chrome browser. See my other JavaScript PC emulator project at http://sourceforge.net/projects/jsdosbox (faster, also includes a dynarec and sound)

YASP (Yet Another Simple Processor) is a 8-bit microprocessor with microcontroller capabilities (I/O ports, REQ, ACK) that can be used as a small computer for educational purposes. Its development environment includes simulators and assemblers.
