# windows95

This is Windows 95, running in an Electron app. Yes, it's the full thing. I'm sorry.

## Does it work?
|
|
Yes! Quite well, actually.
|
|
|
|
## Should this have been a native app?
|
|
Absolutely.
|
|
|
|
## Does it run Doom (or my other favorite game)?
|
|
You'll likely be better off with an actual virtualization app, but the short answer is yes. [Thanks to
|
|
@DisplacedGamers](https://youtu.be/xDXqmdFxofM) I can recommend that you switch to a resolution of
|
|
640x480 @ 256 colors before starting DOS games - just like in the good ol' days.
|
|
|
|
## How's the code?
|
|
This only works well by accident and was mostly a joke. The code quality is accordingly.

Before you can run this from source, you'll need the disk image. It's not part of the
|
|
repository, but you can grab it using the `Show Disk Image` button from the packaged
|
|
release, which does include the disk image.
|
|
|
|
Unpack the `images` folder into the `src` folder, creating this layout:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
./src/images/windows95.img
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Once you've done so, run `npm install` and `npm start` to run your local build.
