antiframework VS daedalOS

I'm not a professional software developer, it's just my hobby.

Story is, I wanted to make some simple website project using Java, so I had to use some sort of web framework since I've read that CGI should not be used for medium sized project (like very simple social network, or whatever stores and handles data server-side). All the web frameworks I tested for Java (Javalin, Spring, something else I dont remember name of) used Maven, which I'm not familiar with. Why not create my own web framework then? Insert xkcd 927 With knowledge about HTTP protocol, I started making simple framework which uses sockets and regex for request handling, and allows developer to create simple endpoints. Main point is simplicity. It doesn't need any dependencies, just compile it to JAR, import to Your project, and that's it. Project itself is faaaaaaar from perfection, however it works as far as I tested it, and I think young/beginner developers would find it fun and easy to use in private projects.

Framework is in very early development stage, many things might change.

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.

I'm very happy to announce that my personal website has once again been nominated for a Webby Award!

This has also been ported to the web via Emscripten. I host it on my website if anyone wants to play. https://dustinbrett.com/?app=SpaceCadet

As someone who built a website around this idea, I agree! The desktop metaphor is powerful. If anyone wants to check it out it's at https://dustinbrett.com

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.

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.
