In the topic of
Web OS for programmers user
roboter was the idea of creating custom applications for WebOS. Such an idea came to my mind (I found the topic much later), and I took up its implementation.
The alpha version of the custom webOS is running at
webos.mightymind.tu2.ru . You can register in the system, but you can log in with a guest account. At the same time, the settings of this record can be changed by all users, and the files created and published are accessible to all. So it's better and safer to create your account.
Here is what it looks like in Opera 10:

What is the salt of this webOS? Users can create their own applications. So far (in the current version) only their client implementations are possible, that is, downloading code to the server is prohibited.
How to write your application? Go to the main menu (house icon)> Applications> Add.
Enter the name (unique, but preferably simple), application code and tags by which it can be found in the system.
This is how you can write the first user application, which, by the way, has already been implemented :)
')
<H1> Hello, World! </ H1>
Simply?
Let's complicate the task - we will do it interactively:
<SCRIPT>
function alert_text (text) {
alert (alert_text);
}
</ SCRIPT>
<INPUT type = "text" id = "TextFotAlert">
<INPUT type = "button" value = "OK" onclick = "javascript: alert_text ($ ('# TextFotAlert'). Val ());">
I will not disclose my real name (KO
;) ) and say that applications are written in HTML and JavaScript. Let me just say that the OS used to work:
1. jQuery 1.3.2 with some plugins for dragging windows and creating tabs
2. Modified xAjax 0.5
3. Application Vordator, based on jQuery and modified by me. For which I say a special thank you to an unknown author, who offered him in some source (I don’t remember which one, sorry).
The source codes of the OS will be distributed under the GNU GPL 3 license. To work, besides the web server and browser, you need: PHP, MySQL.
PS This version is alpha, it contains an incomplete, but necessary functionality. Its improvement and catching bugs have not yet been completed, I hope for your help in this matter.
PPS Works on current versions of all popular browsers. There is a problem with IE of all versions, rather peculiar to it, - incorrect display of various elements of the workspace.
PPPS I cannot transfer to the collective blog for the banal reason for Habr; ( Thanks!
