Old operating systems and processors didn't really distinguish between active and idle processor states-your computer was either on or off. "Along with some old fashioned web optimizations, this makes the emulator show the Mac’s boot screen in a second and be fully booted in 3 seconds, even with a cold HTTP cache," Parparita wrote.ĬPU usage was another issue. To solve the download problem, Parparita compressed the disk image and broke it up into 256K chunks that are downloaded on demand rather than up front. Parparita details some of his work in this blog post.īeginning with a late 2017 browser-based port of the Basilisk II emulator, Parparita wanted to install old apps to more faithfully re-create the experience of using an old Mac, but he wanted to do it without requiring huge downloads or running as a separate program as the Macintosh.js project does. Instead, it's the creative solutions that developer Mihai Parparita has come up with to enable persistent storage, fast download speeds, reduced processor usage, and file transfers between the classic Mac and whatever host system you're running it on. What makes the project unique isn't necessarily that it's browser-based it has been possible to run old DOS, Windows, and Mac OS versions in browser windows for quite a while now.

I will be very happy if you comment on this post or help me improve this project on Github. I would like to introduce this project and connect with the developers' communities. This emulator is an open-source project on Github. I have been working on this project for about six months, and during this project, I learned many essential topics in programming.
I started my journey as a web developer in October 2020 and started learning web development from Documents, Udemy and Youtube. I'm interested in things related to computers and science. This website has PWA (Progressive Web Apps), which with this feature we can install it on any operating system such as Windows, Mac OS, GNU/ Linux, and we can also use it offline :) This project was something like that, it didn't start well, and it was simple, but when I continued on my way and didn't break the chain, I saw the fantastic progress. I think if something does not start well, it may end well when you do your best. I wrote this project by HTML, CSS, and JS. We have programs like Notes, Calculator, Terminal, VScode, and other apps and features on this website. I want to introduce my project, which I call Mac OS emulator on the Web.
