JSDex Editions

One OS.
Two Flavors.

JSDex comes in two editions — pick the one that fits how you compute.

⚡
Minimal
// FAST. LEAN. KEYBOARD-FIRST.
JSDex Minimal strips the desktop down to raw essentials. Inspired by keyboard-driven systems, it's built for power users who want maximum speed and total control inside the browser. Zero bloat.

    Pros

  • Blazing fast load time
  • Ultra-low resource use
  • Keyboard-driven workflow
  • Highly customizable

    Cons

  • Setup is not user-friendly
  • Steep learning curve
  • CLI-heavy experience
🚀
Go!
// STANDARD. FRIENDLY. READY TO GO.
JSDex Go! is the full experience — a proper desktop with windows, a taskbar, built-in apps, and a guided first-run setup. Open the tab, click around, and you're already home. The default choice for most users.

    Pros

  • Full GUI desktop experience
  • Built-in apps included
  • Beginner-friendly
  • Familiar UX patterns

    Cons

  • Heavier than Minimal
  • More background processes
  • Less bare-metal control

2003 — FIRST OS
JSDex OS Launches — WideWeb's First Operating System
After a decade of building for the web, Josh Wide bets everything on a radical idea: an operating system that lives entirely in the browser. JSDex v1 ships and shocks the industry. The web is no longer just a platform — it's the computer.
2003 – 2023
Years of Iteration — Minimal & Go!
JSDex evolves across dozens of versions. WideWeb introduces two distinct editions: Minimal for power users who want keyboard-first speed, and Go! for everyone who just wants a full desktop out of the box.

👨‍💻
Josh Wide
Founder & CEO — WideWeb Inc.
A Portland-born developer and internet entrepreneur, Josh Wide started WideWeb in 1992 as an internet service and web development company. For over a decade he helped build the early web — then in 2003, he made his boldest move: shipping JSDex, the world's first web-based OS. His bet that "the browser will become the computer" turned out to be right.

// Company

WideWeb System Softwares Inc. is an independent technology company headquartered in Portland, Oregon. Founded in 1992 as an internet services provider, WideWeb pivoted to OS development in 2003 with the launch of JSDex — the world's first browser-based operating system.
