A real graphical Linux desktop, running in your browser.

Loads and runs entirely in your browser. Click to start — your keyboard drives the machine.

Tip: click inside the screen to capture mouse & keyboard; press Esc to release. For v86 systems (FreeDOS, KolibriOS, Tiny Core), the first boot downloads the disk image, so give it a moment.

About

Tiny Core is a minimal but complete Linux distribution with a graphical desktop, in a tiny footprint. It represents the 2000s era — the years of Windows XP and the first mainstream 64-bit chips — with something we can legally boot: an actual modern-lineage *nix GUI, live in the browser.
