The new desktop Outlook is a bad idea. Here's why
Palm Pre's webOS (2009) is the most famous. After an acquisition by HP (2010-2013), it was acquired by LG's (with patents going to Qualcomm).
Before that was a neat Linux project Pyrodesktop (2007) which was an x11 window manager using Firefox guts to render. There was also a trend of trying to mate Javascript technologies to gnome back then, with efforts like gjs seeing some adoption. I don't know how popular it is, but a spinoff of css was/is used for styling in GNOME for a while.
These days there's tons of web desktop projects. https://github.com/syxanash/awesome-web-desktops . Only sort of in the spirit but i quite adore Greenfield, an html5 Wayland desktop/compositor. https://github.com/udevbe/greenfield

Thanks glad you liked it! There other "desktop environments" in the browser (https://github.com/syxanash/awesome-web-desktops), but I tried my best to be one of the more accurate/functional ones.

After 1 YEAR of hard work my NEW Ultimate Web Desktop Environment is ready for launch!!!!!
Ah, my first experience with these "Web Desktops" was with AaronOS. After digging, some digging I was inspired by a few others that I felt went beyond the visual copying and tried to make some kind of underlying system, which I thought was a cool idea to work on. The others were Windows 93 , [https://www.os-js.org/]( & [https://windows96.net/](. There are some good collections of various OS's, if you are interested: - https://github.com/syxanash/awesome-web-desktops - https://github.com/zriyansh/awesome-OS
What are some alternatives?
