js-dos VS wttr.in

Funny timing. I actually just built an in-house server this past Friday to host the original Oregon Trail using js-dos because I don't like poking holes in the content filter for sites like archive.org. I didn't worry too much about copyright, as I assumed it was abandonware at this point.

Thanks glad you liked it! It's actually not a port but is running on DOS via https://js-dos.com/, same as Doom and Jazz Jackrabbit. I actually have my 8 favorite Shareware games on my website which can all be played.

Maybe something like https://js-dos.com/ for dos and https://www.emulatorjs.com/ for old game consoles?

DOS Emulation via js-dos

Adding emulators is something I always wanted to do and I have plans to add more in 2022. For 2021 I was able to add Virtual x86 (.img/.iso), BoxedWine (.exe/.zip), JS-DOS (.exe/.zip) & Ruffle (.swf/.spl). Most of these emulators utilize WebAssembly to run non-JS code.

It can indeed run some real windows programs via BoxedWine. I've set it up so you can double click an .exe and it will automatically try and run it, although typically if it needs support dll's then they are all in a zip. For example the zip file for Notepad++ 32-bit x86 can directly run in BoxedWine. You just drag the zip file on, right click and select run in BoxedWine. It can also run DOS apps/games via JS-DOS and has similar mappings for exe/zip. Both emulators make use of WASM as do several other apps, such as the x86 emulator shown in the demo video. My main "OS" is only JS/HTML/CSS written in TypeScript with React/Styled Components.

wttr.in is unfortunately not accurate in many cities in the world, check their github issues

The difference with weafetch is that it has its own config file which can just be configured and not touched anymore. When using wttr.in with curl, any custom changes you want to get from the output will need to be typed in everytime.

What about https://wttr.in/ ?

The source of the data that are presented: https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in

I don't recommend using wttr.io at all, their current provider shows inaccurate information for many cities, including Berlin. (source)

Oups the last link was incorrect it should have been https://github.com/chubin/wttr.in. I pull the info and store it in a txt file then I reference with cat or sed. That way it's super quick.
