More specifically, How is it possible to create an os with a markup language? Or is this really a misnomer and the OS itself is built on top of JavaScript?
I don’t wish for any sort of markup for the actual os, but it just seems like an impossible task without even the most basic control flow, like if statements/for loops or jumps.
If anyone can show me an If in Html5, I will definitely be satisfied, or just a they do that stuff with javascript works as well.
It sounds like a web application, that itself is a platform for HTML5 (mostly javscript) web applications. It provides a set of APIs that javascript “applications” can implement to run on their platform and “multitask” and communicate amongst each other.
To help visualize, you can think of how facebook has apps that developers can make. That’s not a perfect comparison, but it can kind of help you get in the right frame of mind. Carbyn seems MUCH more open than facebook is in terms of apps, and of course that’s the whole point.
That’s my thoughts after reading what’s available and watching the video, hope it helps!
