About Retro OS 95

Retro OS 95 is a modern landing page that emulates the look and feel of classic Windows 95. It’s engineered with responsive design, WCAG-minded accessibility, and SEO-friendly semantics. All visuals are embedded via SVG or data URIs for a self-contained experience.

Design System

Pixel-precise bevels, system palette, and a faithful window chrome—formed with CSS variables to ensure seamless theming.

Performance

No external image requests. Fonts via CDN and optimized animations keep it snappy across devices.

Interactivity

Windows are draggable, minimizable, and maximizable. Start menu navigation and a taskbar replicate retro UX patterns.

Features

Draggable Windows

Move windows freely without breaking the document flow. On mobile, we adapt for touch and readability.

Taskbar & Start Menu

Minimize windows to the taskbar and navigate via Start—just like the classics.

Dark Mode

Toggle a modern, high-contrast dark palette, persisted across visits.

Animations

Subtle, performant transitions evoke nostalgia without hampering performance.

Accessible

Semantic HTML, landmark regions, ARIA labels, focus outlines, and keyboard‑friendly controls.

SEO-Ready

Structured data, descriptive metadata, and a clean heading hierarchy.
