Another great resource to create web experiences that look like old versions of Windows is 98.css by Jordan Scales: https://jdan.github.io/98.css/

With it, you don't need to use React to get decent results, see?

The uncanny valley comes to mind. It resembles Windows 95, but the fonts and spacing feel wrong.

Thanks! Yep - I wrote a custom React component wrapping v86 (see: https://github.com/hatf0/hat.fo-next/blob/master/components/... - needs some cleanup). The most shocking part is that Doom runs shockingly well through it, too. Looking into getting networking integrated with v86 too via Tailscale.
