That did cause some reactions. The reason why I brought this up is because I for a year have been working on a personal project named Brevity, and I have been experimenting with the idea of basing an OS on a web browser engine on top of Linux.
But that’s not the goal of the OS – it’s just one possible way to reach the goal. The technical goal is to have a system with as clean architecture as possible. For the user, the goal is to have a UI that doesn’t get in the way. I have been playing around with MVC patterns in native DOM JavaScript (by that I mean that I don’t use libraries) for some time, but issues such as JavaScript not having an import-statement has made me look for workarounds. I’m not sure if it’s worth it. Judging from the the general opinion of this discussion, it’s definitely not worth it. :) So I’m not sure what will happen to my project. I’d really just like to have my computer as simple as possible. I love dwm because of its simplicity, and right now I would like to have the same kind of simplicity in the lower layers. -- Best regards, Alexander Teinum
