windows95
This is Windows 95, running in an Electron app. Yes, it's the full thing. I'm sorry. Download it here.
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 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 and state images. They're not part of the repo, but you can download them here.
Unpack the images folder into the src/renderer folder, creating this layout:
./src/renderer/images/default-state.bin
./src/renderer/images/windows95.img
Once you've done so, run npm install and npm start to run your local build.
