💾 RubensOS

A Retro Web Desktop Experience.

📖 About The Project

RubensOS is a fully interactive, web-based operating system inspired by the aesthetics of the 90s and the Vaporwave music subculture. It serves as a creative portfolio, allowing users to navigate through draggable windows, manage applications, and discover hidden features.

This project was built to demonstrate the power of Vanilla JavaScript using modern Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) patterns, without reliance on heavy frameworks.

🚀 Applications & Features

🎵 Winamp Media Player (Hybrid Engine)

A fully functional music player built to mimic the legendary Winamp.

  • Hybrid Core: Tries to stream via YouTube API first. If restricted (Error 150), it automatically falls back to a direct MP3 stream from the Internet Archive.
  • Visualizer: Dynamic CSS-based frequency bars that animate during playback.
  • Controls: Volume slider, Play, Pause, Stop, and Track Info marquee.

🎨 Pixel Paint

A robust drawing tool for creating pixel art.

  • Tools: Brush, Eraser, and Clear Canvas.
  • Customization: Adjustable brush size slider and color palette.
  • Export: Save your masterpieces directly to your computer as .png files.

🧮 Calculator & 📅 Calendar

  • Calculator: Functional logic for basic arithmetic operations with error handling.
  • Calendar: Dynamically generates the current month's view based on the user's system date.

🖥️ System Features

  • Window Manager: Complete drag-and-drop system with active Z-index management (clicking a window brings it to the front).
  • CRT Effect: Toggleable CRT monitor overlay (scanlines and flicker) via the "View" menu.
  • Boot Sequence: Retro BIOS-style loading screen.

🐇 Easter Eggs

The Matrix Mode

  • Type the Konami Code on your keyboard to hack the system: ↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A
  • Result: Triggers a Matrix Digital Rain effect rendered on a background HTML5 Canvas.

🛠️ Built With

  • HTML5 (Semantic structure)
  • CSS3 (Variables, Flexbox, Grid, Animations, CRT Filters)
  • JavaScript (ES6+) (Classes, Async/Await, DOM Manipulation, YouTube API)
