Get ready to be hit by waves of nostalgia because Windows 95
is back! Just another developer doing magic. The magician by the name of Felix
Rieseberg, a Slack developer, developed a Windows 95 app that can run on macOS,
Windows, and Linux. The Windows 95 OS has been seen running on many devices
like the Apple Watch, Android wear and also the Xbox. But an app that could run
on three different operating systems is going to get all the nostalgia-seekers
riled up for sure.
Reiseberg used Electron to develop the app. Electron is used
to build cross platform desktop apps with Javascript, HTML and CSS. The app is
available at 129 MB and can be downloaded from GitHub for both MacOs and Windows. Source code of the app is available there. The app uses up around 200 MB of RAM and WordPad,
MS Paint, Solitaire, Minesweeper, etc can be used without any issues.
Unfortunately, Internet Explorer does not work.
The app was created based on a project which includes
Windows 95, Windows 98 and many other Operating Systems. Hats off to Felix
Reiseberg for giving us a chance to take a trip down memory lane to relive the gloried
days of Windows 95.
