But they are probably to shy to try, and they don't known how to try it without damaging the machine. \r\n\r\nAs your OS.js runs inside a normal Browser, I would suggest to introduce an \"companion app\" for Windows 10. This enables the users to test it and get the look&feel of linux-OSes in general.\r\n\r\nIf the user likes the OS, he can simply use this app also to download the most recent image of this OS or at least the setup: http://os.js.org/installer.exe\r\n\r\nThis App would rely on the demo server: http://osjsv2.0o.no/\r\nIs this server strong enough to accept more users? \r\n\r\nIf you would like, I can design/implement the Windows Universal App and publish it, too.\r\n\r\nAs I would use an embedded Browser, I can also add some \"custom\" APIs to Javascript, which you could use to stay in touch with the users using Toast Notifications, Messages on the tiles etc.\r\n\r\nTell me, if you like this idea.\r\n\r\n~Thomas\r\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/andersevenrud/OS.js-v2/issues/comments/170534411","html_url":"https://github.com/andersevenrud/OS.js-v2/issues/254#issuecomment-170534411","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/andersevenrud/OS.js-v2/issues/254","id":170534411,"user":{"login":"tirrorex","id":8297740,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/8297740?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex","html_url":"https://github.com/tirrorex","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/tirrorex/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-01-11T12:42:10Z","updated_at":"2016-01-11T12:42:10Z","body":"Yes i read the doc, there is no mention whatsoever of the possibility to call osx api.\r\nAnd even if nw.js can do those calls, since the nw version of os.js was most likely design for crossplatform it will not include native api calls, so there is indeed TONS of advantages of implementing real osx code, including memory consumption and thread optimization."}}
