Octos – HTML live wallpaper engine
I had an idea for a similar project (1) a few years back, but abandoned it after reaching the state where I had a node module to attach an Electron window to the wallpaper in Windows.
Fun to see a project that has reached further, remember how cool I used to think dashboards/widgets for the PC stats were when I was younger.

Octos – HTML live wallpaper engine
I have been working on a project with some similarities, an X window manager written in Electron. It uses browser windows for wallpapers as well as frame windows. Haven't gotten the API where I want it to be yet, but I use it daily.
