Maxwell OS: a working desktop over the real portfolio - #22

Conversation
Maxwell OS was a parody shell: windows could not be dragged or resized, Snake was a picture, Minesweeper had a fixed board, My Computer showed the app list, and nothing persisted. It said nothing about the actual work. The desktop is now a working engine over the real portfolio: - Windows drag, resize, maximise on double-click, cycle with Alt/Ctrl+Tab, and the layout plus Display Properties survive reloads (client-only render so the saved session is there on first paint). - A real file system is generated from projects, case studies, essays, resume, open-source proof and the Canon feed. My Computer browses it with a folder tree, address bar and status bar; Notepad opens files with a link back to the live page; MS-DOS Prompt has ls, cd, cat, tree, open, history and the old jokes, all against the same tree. - Minesweeper reuses the Lab's board engine with a real counter, timer, flags and keyboard play. Snake is a real game with food, score, a saved high score, pause, and a d-pad on touch screens. - Display Properties changes wallpaper and colour scheme live, with OK, Cancel and Apply behaving like the real thing. - About shows the real bio; Internet links to the real pages. The model stays pure and unit-tested (22 tests covering the window manager, file system, path resolution, terminal, snake and settings).

Maxwell OS was set dressing. Windows could not be dragged or resized, Snake was a static picture, Minesweeper had a fixed board with no numbers, My Computer listed the apps instead of files, and nothing survived a reload. It said nothing about the actual work.
This makes the desktop a working engine whose contents are the real portfolio.
