This site is truly amazing, it's really inspiring to see how some people can get so creative using the old Desktop GUI metaphor. I'm personally curating a list [1] of all these websites and webapps that look like vintage desktop UIs.

Apologies I'm not familiar with request process on your github. Your list is great, I have some of those already saved as bookmarks. But here is another good one, Amiga workbench; http://www.chiptune.com/


Thanks so much for this site, it's really well crafted! For your information you can simply modify the file README.md and then open a pull request for your submission.


Damn I remember that one from way back, blew me away back then too. Functionality wise it's so faithful but with it's own twist on the aesthetic.


Ubuntu had a really cool demo for Unity on their site a while back (announcement [0]). It's been retired but the code is on Github [1]

Excellent list. You have any favorites?


I would say Ash Kyd [1], Mariano Pascual [2] and Jack Kim [3]
