nice, 90 mins of work in a 6 hour day...
Dope video and very inspirational! I hope one day I'll join MSVan as well. Keep inspiring bro!
Thanks very much! I had a surreal experience last week at the MSVan office where I ran into someone working at Microsoft who said this video of mine (or possibly one of my past ones) was an inspiration for them joining MSVan. So I'm very proud to be able to have inspired a few people with my videos.
@@DustinBrett Wow, that's amazing! Keep up the good work. Hope to see you in MSVan or anywhere in Van someday. I will surely say thank you for being an inspiration.
Amazing project my dude. I am blown away.
Thanks very much! I still try to work on it often, even 43 months later. I just added some AI chat stuff recently and have a lot more plans for it long term. It's my lifetime side project.
How the f*ck did you build this website man, incredible
Haha thanks! I tried to make videos along the way to explain the "how" of making it, but after 3+ years it's hard to even remember some of the stuff I've added at this point. I hope to keep working on it and making videos for a long time so others can feel like they can make similar things and learn how.
You just got yourself a new subscriber bro
Much appreciated! I hope to be making a new video quite soon with my latest features added to daedalOS. It's been a few months since I've done an update on the project.
Whoa this video is lit .
Thanks! Happy to hear you liked it. I'd love to get back into streaming my work on the project in the near future, although weekly streams was a hard pace to maintain.
I used method 2. It works! Big big thank you!
Awesome! It's great to hear the methods are still working. I still occasionally use this WebKit browser to debug Safari issues.
also can I install apps inside this os
You can make your own build and customize it, but I wouldn't say you could do what is considered a traditional "install".
how do I add a login page before entering into this web based os
It would require lots of different things. You'd need some kind of auth on a backend, and this app is client side only currently. You could use API's like Google's Auth. Currently my app does not support this, but it's possible.
so impressive, inspiring as heck
Thanks very much! Happy to hear you considered it inspiring.
Truly amazing work my friend. Inspiration to many including myself with this, absolutely love pushing the limits of web browsers! My question as a bit of a noob. Is this customisable at all so that I'm able to spin up my own "lite" version of this that I could populate with my own data?
Thank you very much! Indeed it is totally customizable. The source code is linked in the video description and is itself a "lite" version of my site because I have already done my own customizations on the source for my personal website. The main idea is that you customize what is in the "public" folder which decides the settings and files that will be part of the final build. And further customization happens at the user level when they visit the site because all changes are persisted locally in the browser via IndexedDB.
great project by great man
Very kind of you to say, thank you very much! Happy to hear you liked my project. It's come a long way in the past 3 years since this video was made.
Congratulations, you have of course my vote :-)
Thanks so much! It's hard to believe I posted this only 4 months ago. Since then I unfortunately did not win, but I am optimistic that the 3rd times the charm for my next chance in 2025. I am working on finding new ways to keep improving my site/project further. I hope to have your vote next year assuming I get nominated again.
It's just amazing watching you! I wanted to ask you if you didn't go to college how did you got jobs? And what you as a software engineer think of this whole 'Ai is gonna eat jobs' stuff which is going on. I'm asking this because I'm 18 and this year I'm going to university (college). My priorities are computer science CS and AI, so I'll get graduated in 2028. Answer keeping the future in mind. Thanks
Thanks very much! I got jobs by getting my foot in the door while also starting from the "bottom". I found my first programming job through Craigslist when I moved to Vancouver. It requires a hustle attitude along with making your own opportunities when you don't have a degree to lean on. As for the AI concern, I think it won't eat our jobs for a very long time, but it also depends if your job is doing something that is on the edge of what is possible to automate or not. AI at the moment does not produce very good code and it makes up things all the time. It works ok in demos and for Todo style apps or code snippets, but when you have big apps that are common within companies, we still have a long way to go, maybe decades. But if you love the work than you will embrace AI as a tool to make you better and more productive, so either way it isn't close to replacing what a good & passionate software engineer can do. I think if you are going to go to school to learn something, it should be because you have a passion for the topic and want to build a career around it so you can do what you love and be proficient at it. I don't recommend studying something because you think it will make good money or that the jobs are there, because even if that is true, you should focus your life on doing what you love. I agree with the phrase, "Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life".
@@DustinBrett very insightful! thanks for sharing.☺
Hey! I’ve got to say, your insights are truly impressive! 🌟 Your experience shines through, and I’m definitely going to apply your advice. Could you give a bit more detail on how you manage your daily routine efficiently? Any tips for balancing work with personal life? Thanks a ton for responding to my previous comment! I implemented your advice and it was incredibly helpful. You’ve literally changed my life in the best way possible. I’ve sent you a DM with my story-hope it makes you smile! My profile picture there is the same as here on RUclips. I’d love to know more about your coaching services. Based on your great experience, I’m seriously considering working with you. Sincere thanks and praise for everything you do! 🙌👏
Thanks very much! Feel free to email me also at dustinbrett@gmail.com, my messenger client on my site gets so much spam that I've had trouble making use of it for a while now. I don't have any coaching services, but that is a neat idea, maybe one day. As for advice on managing my daily routine and balancing my work and personal life, I don't have a ton of advice beyond my last comment. For me work and my personal life are one in the same and I am always juggling between them. My best advice for work is to find something you love doing and then you'll never "work" a day in your life. I don't have that perfectly implemented yet, but I do feel like I am on the right track. You need to follow the things in life that you find important and don't chase the priorities that other people tell you are important.
Just to follow up my previous post... I think the icu*75.dll files in the latest WebKitRequirementsWin64 zip aren't working correctly. I got a fresh copy (icu4c-75_1-Win64-MSVC2022.zip) from the github icu pages. I replaced the 5 dll's with these fresh ones, and minibrowser lept into life.
Glad you got it working. I do find that some releases have issues, even though you'd think the CI is running tests. Usually one of the versions will work, but indeed it has had some outages of functionality.
As of mid-July 24, the method involving the WinCairo method doesn't seem to work properly, at least not for me (the latest versions of both zip files were used). The screen in the minibrowser remains blank, though resources seem to be being fetched OK. When the window is dragged across the screen, junk from what's underneath the browser window is shown instead - it's like the screen isn't refreshing properly. One in about 20 times, it'll work correctly, but mostly not - this seems to indicate there is some sort of race problem going on. I note from reading elsewhere that the Cairo library (a supposedly platform-independent graphics suite) is fraught with compatibility problems with quite a bit of different video hardware. Possibly there is some unadvertised requirement with video hardware/drivers, as both my Win10 machines are somewhat old in that regard? The Playwright method works OK (though seeming like a bit of a sledgehammer-to-crack-a-nut solution), as far as it goes, but I have noticed a couple of checked-to-be-valid Webp images on my sites come up as broken in it. The WinCairo method would be far superior if it could be made to work reliably, but there seem to be so many version-varying dependencies in the whole methodology that I fear that any minor version tweaks on its many components is always going to make it rather delicate. None of the .exe files are signed either (very amateurish), making Windows scream exceedingly loudly.
It is unfortunately not the most stable solution, and it would be much better if Apple would just release a Windows version which is pre-built fully or has an installer. I can see from your latest post that you got it working with some adjustment. Hopefully they will have the whole thing working again soon. I do plan to make another video about this in the near future, assuming it all is working again. I had it working a few weeks ago in preparation for making a new video, but I have been slow to actually make it. Thanks for the info.
Hey man, lets meet some time. Im just in Coquitlam.
Hey, very possible! I am always trying to attend local tech events in Vancouver so we may run into each other some day. Or you can come work at Microsoft then you'll run into me often. 🙂
@@DustinBrett ill try to visit your office next time. Maybe I could work there ive done volunteer work for Microsoft in the past.
I lived in Vancouver my whole life... and I'm a little bit of the opposite.. I travel to Richmond via car... haha oh man, that train ride on the skytrain gives me a headache seeing it...I took a bus every day for 10 years at 2 schools... your schedule seems super tight...
I personally enjoy the walk to the SkyTrain and the ride, but I've always thought "big city" life was fun. I don't like taking the bus though tbh. I am not sure if you mean "tight" like as in cool, or as in short on time. For time, I don't really have a schedule (besides meetings), so I come to work whenever, sometimes that means I get in at 9, other times 10:30, nobody is keeping track of times at my work so it's up to us to manage our time. I lived in Vancouver from 2015-2020 before I moved to Richmond, and I enjoyed it quite a bit, I lived in Yaletown.
One question? I have seen your codebase why you are not using any external state management library any particular reason or its just that you dont need it?
Indeed I don't feel there is a need for a state management library. I find React Context to be very capable and the re-rendering is not a problem when the code is written to take it into consideration. If I were using a backend I would be more likely to consider a state management library to work with the API, possibly something like RTK Query.
Stunning. Thanks. Was expecting on Monday to negotiate a floating licence from QA on Monday to sort out safari date input behaviour. Ta again
Happy to help! I hope that this Webkit in Windows alternative was enough to debug your date input issue. I find it quite useful to be able to run Webkit locally in Windows. But that being said, I still sometimes find use in BrowserStack which I do use at my work.
What a timely find. Unsurprisingly, I came here from your daedalOS project, which btw is insane, and i have been thinking about doing some travels. I'm also a software engineer, single and about to turn 30, and although I never left my native Brazil, one of my main interests in life is different cultures. I'm tired of my job (which tbh isn't really that bad, but anyways), I do have some money saved, but the golden handcuffs are pretty strong. I guess I'm afraid of spending money and regretting it later, and having a hard time getting my career going once again (the layoffs kinda made me change my mindset and try to play it safe). During the time you were travelling, did you fear about your career and future? Or was it something that you didn't even think about?
Thanks very much! For me my career was not something I was too concerned about, but when I left for my travels I was in IT and when I came back to Canada I started a whole new career in Software Engineering, based on my passions with computers as a kid. I would say that if you travel the way you want and have the experiences you've dreamed about while traveling, then there is no way you would regret it. When I left the world was a little bit different as far as layoffs and the general vibe of working. But I don't personally think that is a problem for someone who is willing to work hard and start from the bottom. It is indeed a risk to go and travel, but to me it's a bigger risk to play it safe in life, so it was an easy choice for me. I think if you believe in yourself and are willing to work hard, then almost anything is possible. And to me the most important thing in life is not regretting the "what if's" of what could be.
What is AMA?
AMA means Ask Me Anything. I don't recall if I posted about doing this in the future, but thanks for asking to clarify assuming I did. Update: Ah I recall now that there was an AMA in my video from my org. They do these often. I also plan to do an AMA eventually which is why I forgot where you'd seen that term.
Do you know what's your problem? It's that the non-programming people will never know the amount of effort, experience, & legendary to make such a piece of art! They see this like a normal Windows so what's matter! Man this insane if only they know how extremely hard to put such stuff inside a browser!! Absolute mind blowing Keep it up 👏 I hope someday it will be valued right
Thanks so much for the kind words! It's a problem indeed, but one I am proud to have. Part of my hard work was to make the experience so seamless that people wouldn't notice they are even on a website. It was my attempt to leap over the uncanny valley of user interface. Much appreciated! I too hope that one day it gets a bit more recognition, but I have got quite a bit from people who know the effort I have put in and for that I am forever grateful.
I made a repo called safari-on-windows for making this process easier, where hopefully it just works as a single install.bat script
Cool idea, thanks for making it easier for others.
yo mr dustin this is beautiful
I was living there 2019 , i want to go back, im developer hire me brou jajaja
It's a great place to live. Come back, we need more good devs. As for hiring, that's not something I have much say in. 🙂

Bro you learned coding on your own ? Did you go to college
Indeed I learned on my own and I never went to any post-secondary school for anything. I just have a passion for tech and wanting to know how it all works.
thank you so much
keyboard name pleaseeee (the one when your in the office)
My personal keyboard in my home office is the Corsair K100.
I am just 15 year old, and I have a big dream of becoming a great developer, just like you. I would've voted if only I was able to come 1 year ago. 😅
Thanks for the support! I didn't make a new short in 2024 but I did get nominated again. Hopefully in 2025 I can win as I will likely enter once again.
I have a problem, that isn't directly a part of this guide, but I haven't been able to find a solution anywhere. I followed the guide to download the two zip-files, merged them and all that works great. But I am trying to debug a web application that uses authentication cookies, and for some reason the webkit browser will not create that cookie. Does anyone know how to enable all cookie-related functions in the webkit/minibrowser? I would be very grateful for any pointers.
I am not sure why you are unable to make a specific cookie. I don't see much mentioned about this being an issue. I did some test and found cookie support worked. One thing I noticed is it required a refresh of the page to show the cookie in the Storage tab.
Great vlog
Thank you!
Great vlog
Thanks!
If I had seen/subscribed your work 1 year ago i would have definitely voted
Thanks for the support! I plan to enter again for next years, hopefully 3rd times the charm. 🙂
Make the search box in and system wallpapers and settings app and all UWP apps and make microsoft edge browser in your website and make start button like windows10 and make recycle bin and taskbar large.
Thanks for the suggestions. I have focused my energy on making apps which I use often such as Chrome instead of Edge, but one day perhaps there will be multiple options for all apps. Also the browser is partly fake anyway because of the limits of an . I had the start button as the Windows logo but was given a warning to take it down so I did. I've considered adding a recycle bin but because of the temporary nature of my sites file system it didn't seem important as of yet. I do plan to eventually have customizations such as via Settings or adjusting the taskbar. As for search it does search for quite a bit but not everything. You can set the wallpaper to any image you have and also I have some animated wallpaper options in the context menu.
I'm a student at UBC majoring in CS and this gives me a very authentic insight into what my life in the future could be like and honestly does not look that bad. The work life balance seems to be very fair and you seem to spend a good amount of time with your kids. What position are you in and how long have you been working here?
Happy to hear you found my video insightful, it is indeed an authentic look into a little slice of my life. Microsoft provides a great work-life-balance, and in general I am pretty good at finding a balance. Currently I am a front-end engineer (SE2) working on Viva Glint, which is survey software.
Yoo! Dustin really Fascinated By Your Website Which You Have Created a Whole Windows virtual Box in html.. Really Amazing Mann.. Looking Forward To Work With You Soon.👍

Day in the Life of a Microsoft Software Engineer: 70% walking, 10% eating, 20% working
I think it was more like 30/20/50, but I didn't record as much while working. Also this is just one day in my life. Some days I work more, some less.
@@DustinBrett Thanks for clarifying. I was just joking, no offence. It looks absolutely amazing! I'll be joining MSVan around this September. Hope to meet you in the office!!
@@jerrylin4980 Thanks! That's awesome you'll be joining MSVan. See you there!
So you work for 5h a day (10-12, 13-16) - cool, do you still get a full pay?
I'm salaried so yes, and I work more than that some days. Also I work during my commute and some evenings. I do more than the 37.5 hours in my contract. At a job like mine, it's about what you do and not punching a clock.
i just can say wow
Thanks! Glad you liked it.

Thanks! Ya the office is very central so easy to recognize most of the spots for those who have been to Vancouver. I make roughly what the levels fyi website says is average for my role/company.
Sick edit man, this was great. That pizza looked like it absolutely slapped🤟
Thanks, glad you liked it! Ya that pizza is very good, shout out to Steveston Pizza Company! My family has it every few weeks.
Soon later this will be basically a virtual machine and I’m all for it, like, Jesus Christ
My long term plan was basically to turn this into something that can run on bare metal / VM software. I'd like to rewrite it in something like Rust / WASM one day so that it can be more portable. It also has VM software inside it thanks to v86's x86 emulator. Thanks for checking it out!
@@DustinBrett Oh my god that is going to be big, I can see DaedalOS making it to international headlines at this point
@@Sepoipaping That would be cool, thanks for the support!
Ok Love this. Would be grateful for a video on how You made Your personal website.
Thanks! I've made quite a few videos about my website but I will work on making another one that goes over some details about how I made the site based on how it is now. I've been planning a retrospective to look at the code but over the years it's grown so much that it will be tricky to make the video short.
@@DustinBrett Alright then. I appreciate the video in advance.
I still can't even believe my eyes after viewing your website! Great job! Wizard level 🧙🏻♂
Thanks for checking out my site and videos!
didn't knew there are weebs in microsoft(creativity board on 6th floor)
Haha ya we have all sorts here. That board has looked that way for years though, so it's possible some people that drew that stuff aren't even there anymore.
this is so friggin cool!!! I'm working my way through the readme and whatnot now to try understand how the whole thing works! Such cool work man!! holy crap I also use that same space image as one of my main computer's desktop image, so when you wiggled the folder and it minimized the website, I thought it minimized the youtube video for a second. I love it! That's the level of hilarious confusion I want to play around with tooooooo!!! hahahahahah!
Thanks very much! That's cool we have the same wallpaper, I love space backgrounds. Happy to hear you like my site.
