An operating system with lore.
Cricket is a very basic web OS that can do basic functions. It currently has:
- a text editor (Notes)
- a terminal (doesn't do much at the moment)
- a browser
- and an about page.
The Notes app should be pretty self explanitory, but I'll give you a quick rundown in case you can't understand it.
To open files in Notes, click the "Open File" button. This should bring up the file selector interface.
To save files in Notes, click the "Save File" button this should bring up the file saver interface.
To name files, enter your file name in the input box at the top.
To clear everything, simply click the "New File" button.
Currently, when you type in a command, the input box disappears. I will have to fix that soon.
Current commands:
help: Brings up this text.
echo: Echoes your text back.
clear: Clears the terminal.
notes: Opens the Notes app.
The Browser is pretty simple. Just enter the link, and see your website! (most of the time)
Some websites don't allow themselves to be put in iframes because of clickjacking. We're not going to go over this in detail, but here's a quick overview:
Clickjacking is placing an invisible iframe of a legitamite website over your malicious website. When the user clicks a button that seems to be something, they actually click a button in the hidden iframe, for example, the "buy" button on amazon. This can lead to the user doing unintended things, such as paying money to the hacker.
You can read more about clickjacking here.
To play music, simply upload your desired choice of music to the file interface, and the music should play.
This just displays the system info.
