Thanks for creating this, it fit perfect for a tiny web site I made[0]. Hits just the right mix of usability and nostalgia and makes me want to use it for more projects.

Off topic, I love your site - it's a perfect homage to a loving family tradition (even if it was only for a couple of vacations). This site is, I think, an example of what a beautiful internet could be (and maybe is, if anyone knows got to find more sites like this-really authentic stories). Now, I hope I'm not being fooled by an AI generated story, but even if I am, I am happy to believe in that illusion.

Edit: After reflecting on this situation, your creation, your art: the css library paired with your story gave me a modern day Norman Rockwell dopamine hit. This has been an absolute experience, bravo to the collaboration!

I don't have any way to prove it but this was no AI hallucination, a completely true story and human generated site (there is a link to the GitHub on there).

I do appreciate your thoughts and I too hope I'm not being fooled by an AI :)

I went straight for the "circles" background. 98 UI and art will never tire me.

I used 98.css as starting point for the Winamp theme in https://chiptune.app. It was very easy to modify and extend, thanks!

I hear some pops and clicks every now and then when playing music... Using Vivaldi 8.1.4087.56 (Official Build) (64-bit).

Some car tuners are very jealous of your domain name...

Thank you so much for your project! I have spent the last few months working on my own retro computing CSS library, but instead inspired by BeOS https://beta.mtechnic.me

PS: while doing research on my project, I found your portfolio site as well. Was shocked to see we had the exact same taste in music, and genuinely made me curious if everyone whose doing retro throwbacks libraries did as well.

There was a time I replaced most Windows icons with their BeOS counterparts using a resource editor messing with the MORICONS.DLL (IIRC).

Firefox (Nightly) on Android: tabs don't work: when clicking on a tab, the URL changes, there's a slight jump in content, but the new tab is not selected. Hope this helps

The tabs on the home page aren't wired up because doing so requires JavaScript

> Tabs should be managed by adding custom javascript code. All you need is to add the [aria-selected=true] attribute to the active tab.

I have a vague feeling that tabs should be doable in pure CSS/HTML, but I might be thinking of menus (where the menu is a sub element of the button and thus visibility can depend on mouse position)

one can do one level of tabs using # fragments and :target selector if I recall correctly

> I no longer work on 98.css and I haven’t in a really long time. My only contribution to the project is monitoring the repo for high-quality pull requests. If I get one, I briefly scan through the author’s profile to make sure they’re not going to mine cryptocurrency on my user’s machines, and then I give them full commit access. “Looks good, go ahead and merge this yourself.”

Very nice!

It’s a job well done. I personally liked 2000’s colour choices, but 98 managed to look modern enough a couple Unix window managers decided to copy it.

As my GUI look of choice, I’d be between IRIX and OpenWindows. Motif always looked a bit unfinished and CDE was a child of its time - who sets up printers?

Wow SimGolf was something I spent so much time on as a kid and haven't thought about in years! Thanks for the nostalgia trip.

I wrapped many projects in 98.css. And some in Aero and even XP. Thank you!

What are your favorite aero or xp css design systems?

I absolutely love this. Thank you for making it and sharing it!

I've also once experienced burnout, a book called Pedram Shojai: The Urban Monk has kept it away since. It's practical, not religious. Highly recommend it!

Great project. Thanks for making it! Brings back memories

This is even more impressive knowing that its artisanal code, or as we called it back then, code.

You have brought back so many memories of mine through this one website. Thank you

This is awesome. IMHO things like this were the whole point of CSS. Nice job!

You nailed it, I'm glad you had a good outlet for it.
