By vibe coding exposure, of course! Loader is something Claude likes to make that way as one example. Also, take a look at the code and comments (disregarding that readme is obvious aigen)
Only a human can see the disproportionality between the amount of work and the point of it. I, a human, tried it and thought: why does this exist? It's providing nothing. For example, there's a clock "app": but why and how? No human would consider the clock inside of this to be convenient.
Train LLMs more… this is AI slop. I hope the OP goes and looks as others like Win95 desktop or The Classic Mac project to get a sense of what the purpose is. This. Has no purpose other than to create a desktop look alike for an os that doesn’t exist and so there’s no rules.
It’s fine if you want to create something like that. It’s not very good UX though.
At the moment there's a [dead] subling comment by the project author explaining what it's about. Because the comment is dead I can't reply to it asking further questions unfortunately.
The project was apparently designed and created on a phone.
I vouched for it and encouraged others to do the same. It doesn't appear to have been flagged and a provides a detailed rationale for the project, even though I share the doubts about the overall utility.
You should mention that it offers phone/tablet viewing in the manufacturers pitch, that's awesome over a custom c++ thing. I don't know it they'll care about the bundle size, if you're worried about visual space / where to put it.
The goal isn’t to replace your Mac or Windows calculator or Operating system — it’s to provide a lightweight, modular foundation for browser-based workflows that are entirely user-defined.
The modularity is key:
Customization: If the aesthetic feels “AI slop,” it’s open source — users can restyle it, change the CSS, or swap out the default “vibe-coded” apps for polished ones.
Platform definition: It’s about creating your own minimal workspace, free from the bloat of traditional operating systems.
Industrial logic: Like manufacturers’ HMI templates, the framework provides a consistent, reusable structure — a solid skeleton that others can adapt to their own use cases, whether for dashboards, tools, or creative interfaces.
I built the stable core. The next step is for the community — users, developers, and designers — to build the polished experiences they want on top of it.
And yes I designed it entirely on my Infinix phone
The most impressive software is often born out of constraint.
I recently completed development on a project called GnokeStation, an open-source webdesktop, with a story that I believe is a testament to what's possible with just a phone.
GnokeStation is a unique, ultralight, and highly modular webdesktop environment. It’s designed to function primarily as an HMI (Human-Machine Interface) for industrial dashboards, but its core technical achievement is its minimal resource footprint.
It’s fast, has minimal overhead, and is perfect for low-spec hardware like older computers and Single-Board Computers (SBCs).
The Origin Story: Coded on an Infinix
The reason GnokeStation is so resource-efficient is because I developed and managed the entire code pipeline using nothing but an Infinix Hot 12 Play phone in a rural Nigerian village.
This meant writing, debugging, testing, and managing versions without access to a traditional IDE, a powerful laptop, or reliable power infrastructure. It was a true exercise in constraints-driven development.
The project shows that sophisticated software doesn't require a high-end setup. It demonstrates the immense power and utility of mobile devices as standalone development platforms, even for complex web desktop environments.
The Mission of Accessibility
My goal with GnokeStation is to champion accessibility. By being ultra-light and browser-based, it lowers the barrier to entry for users worldwide who have limited access to high-end computing or stable, high-speed internet.
It's a decentralized solution built to run efficiently anywhere.
I invite anyone interested in web desktop tech, open-source projects, or constraints-driven development to check it out.
These words don't even make sense. This is pure garbage. Maybe your story of building it only on a phone is true (I hope at least, and if so, I commend you), but otherwise...
This is just a calculator app. Why would you go through the Internet to some "web desktop" to use a calculator? I can't comprehend. I see that there are other apps on here you can install such as a notepad... but such applications are already available for resource constrained devices.
What is the point of this? It requires a huge browser to ... show weather and a calculator, which every single device with a web browser can already do 1000x faster and with 1000x less RAM?
When the program first boots there is a license click-through:
> Notice

I am not a lawyer, but this seems wrong or at least misleading. The GPLv3 isn't a license agreement or a contract (as I understand it, though it may still fall under contract law), it's a copyright license. The GPLv3 doesn't have any restrictions to "agree" to, it merely grants the recipient the right to redistribute said software under the terms provided in the license. Thus, asking the user to "accept" the license seems odd.
Nothing wrong with informing the user that the software is free software, but I think you can safely do away with one of those checkboxes.
Thanks for bringing up the GPL-v3 click-through. I agree that the phrasing ('I have read and accept the license') may be redundant or misleading as the GPL is a license, not a contract.
