Nouns 95 is a meme and art project. It has facilitated 5 proposal creations, 1,900+ token votes, and 1 winning auction bid in the DAO, and allows Nouners to celebrate Noun O’CLock via the Crystal Ball.

It combines the functionality of a suite of Nouns tooling into a single browser tab - code as art, something beautiful yet useful.

Since Elon recently launched his own Macrohard company, it is becoming impossible to continue developing Nouns 95 under the Macrohard moniker. This is an opportunity to sunset the Macrohard Nouns 95 design and launch Berry OS.

The OS Experience

Nouns 95 replicates the Windows 95 operating system’s Windows functionality in Typescript using a Zustand-based singleton system. Users can open as many windows as they’d like, the system will manage their position, Z-index, and focus automatically. The Taskbar & Start Menu provide further utility for multi-App use.

Apps are written with Tyescript components using CSS modules. Apps can be nearly infintely complex in their functions, and contained simply within the windows system with 2 top-level CSS modules.

A single App Config file mediates between the two layers, making the addition of new Programs simple.

Berry OS

Berry OS takes the core learnings of Nouns 95 and refines its design for a more robust and stable architecture for a more authentic OS emulator experience with user customization features.

The OS is mobile friendly, works as a Forecaster Miniapp, and soon as an Android APK, all in one codebase.
