The developer turned Windows 95 into an application for MacOS and Linux
In recent years, enthusiasts from different countries managed to launch the Windows 95 operating system on various devices, including Samsung smart hours and Xbox game console.
The developer of the corporate messenger Slack Felix Rizberg went further and turned the old OC Microsoft into the MacOS, Windows and Linux platforms, Gamemia writes. The source code of the project, as well as the instructions for installing and launching the application were published on GitHub .
The program created by Rizberg occupies 129 MB on disk and 200 MB of RAM. At the same time, the application allows you to launch applications and games built into the OC: WordPad, MS Paint, Saperer, Randy and others. However, the Internet Explorer browser does not load web pages.
I PUT Windows 95 Into An Electron App that now Runs on Macos, Windows, and Linux. It's a TERRIBLE IDEA that WORks Shockingly Well. I'm so sorry.

One of the users who installed the Rizberg program on his PC with Windows 10, was also able to launch a doom shooter under Windows 95, but the game was not too good.
Recall that in 2016, the 19-year-old Scottish developer Andre Folds created a native emulator of the original Windows 95, launched in a regular web browser without any additional plugins.
