98.js

98 is a web-based recreation of the Windows 98 operating system that runs entirely in the browser, replicating the look, feel, and behavior of the classic desktop environment. Built using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, it recreates core components such as the desktop, taskbar, file explorer, and system applications with remarkable attention to detail. The project includes functional versions of programs like Notepad, Calculator, Minesweeper, and even a simulated Internet Explorer, providing an interactive nostalgic experience. It uses a virtual filesystem to store user data and supports drag-and-drop functionality, enabling users to interact with files similarly to a real operating system. 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.
