I build an online emulation platform with cloud saving and cross-device support. Would love some feedback.
This seems like the best idea look up www.boxedwine.org and if you want a port of it to Xbox dev mode please comment on this https://github.com/danoon2/Boxedwine/issues/5 saying I would like a port for Xbox too please or by simply liking the post to show interest! If you can code or think you can help the devs in any way let them know

Boxedwine is an emulator that can run windows applications in the browser
Its not actually emulating a real linux kernel. It implements its own "kernel": https://github.com/danoon2/Boxedwine/tree/master/source/kern...

3 YEARS On My Side Project!
I've learned so much while making this project into my personal website (dustinbrett.com). It's made me a much better web developer as I have tried to emulate a desktop environment with pixel perfect accuracy using CSS, HTML & JavaScript.

Show HN: ExaequOS, a new OS running in a web browser
Very cool! It's always refreshing to see the "OS in the browser" projects that try and actually make something functional. I've been working on one myself for nearly 3 years now, called daedalOS (https://github.com/DustinBrett/daedalOS).
The WASM kernel idea is very cool and I hope one day to be able to add something similar to my project. I think you are onto something and I am excited to see your progress as you implement the GUI.

Os.js – open-source JavaScript web desktop platform with a window manager
If you want some Browserception, my desktop environment (https://dustinbrett.com/) can indeed do this. But after a few levels in Chromium you need to add a random query string (/?a=1) to the URL otherwise it stops working.
What are some alternatives?
