It looks real slick, but there is one note-worthy bit:
- Does Kera Desktop only support web apps?
For now, yes. Support for Linux apps is perfectly possible and on the roadmap. For other platforms, we will see what’s possible.
I’m not a fan of web-apps generally, but the transparency sure is pretty! @o@
Wasn’t that the approach of Firefox OS? Not sure how successful this will be but I’m glad somebody is trying it. If webapps were a bit more ubiquitous, I could see this being a good alternative to something like ChromeOS

This looks really promising.

This is a non-starter for me. It makes it less useful than ChromeOS. But, once it runs regular apps, I’d love to give it a try.
I think it looks really nice, and the various approaches it uses are very nice.
Interesting for sure, I never would have thought you could build an entire desktop with JavaScript. Getting support for regular Linux apps would be a must for me
Would this allow for users to customize their desktop with their own JavaScript? Not sure if I missed it, but does it handle multiple monitors?
Reminds me a bit of an old-school shell for windows that was called GeoShell. That was a long time ago.
One, how does this differ from a GNOME or XFCE (or KDE) rice?
Two… JavaScript???
I’m not a coder but uh… Is that a good idea?
