Show HN: I built my site as a Windows 95 experience (2025)
Have fun with the disk defragmenter.
- jdw64 5mo agoCool.A personal wish of mine is that Windows would bring back those nostalgic old click sounds.
- ivere27 5mo agofunny. how can i make Blue Screen of Death?
- CableNinja 5mo agouhg, good job but i regret clicking it! It made my eye twitch slightly, reminding me of a software i occasionally have to deal with called OpenLM.. its truly truly the worst webexperience ever had. Have you ever wanted a windows ui... but for a browser based application? No? Me either, and yet here this thing is! Its like they took a look at the windows 98 ui and decided thats how their app should be, exactly. It even has a start button, and everything opens as a "window" in the browser screen. And even worse, i initially thought it was some theme someone applied, but no, it was literally intentionally designed like that, and theres no alternative theme or formatting
- bentesla 5mo agoThis is surprisingly well executed The consistency of the Windows 95 UI is what sells it.
- thisisharsh7 5mo agolooks great. really like the blog page. i built something similar for my own site but with a macOS vibe - https://thisisharsh7.github.io https://thisisharsh7.github.io
- starwalkn 5mo agoI really hope that if there are any problems with the site, a blue screen of death will appear.
- minvariance 5mo agoIt would be cool if you had a persistent MS Paint app that allowed visitors to draw on
- amit9968 5mo agoThis is super cool, brought back the nostalgia of 90s. I would add "Blue Screen of Death" if anyone clicks multiple times.
- ClaridocsCTO 5mo agoNeeds Minesweeper, solitaire, paint, and a recycle bin
- kalabrium 5mo agoLovely! the old ui feels more calming for some reason.
- patrickhener 5mo agoThis is just to funny. Feeling old knowing this interface and way older ones :D
