[WIP - Windows] Zulas Desktop Environment

[Dr.Hacknik]

I was working on another concept today. Possibly just a macOS layout mode for Zulas. Lemme know what you think.
I am still working on other design elements, and making AtomUI. Hopefully I can get something very functional going and a that looks as good as the Concept(s).


EDIT:

The Concept attached is also not finished.

Looks really good, I'd suggest making the sidebar background resizable and toggle-able, along with the side icons.

EDIT: And a color-neutral home button option would be nice. Once again, it looks really good!

This is Really neet, I will definitely follow this!

if you ever need a guinea pig, or anything, I'll gladly help, my hdd dual boots anyways.
and you said it doesn't remove any Windows files, Could we possibly change that(probably not now, but in the future, with stable releases)

This is all I will do for today. I fixed it up a bit, and actually added the Spotify Metadata.

I was wondering what that was, looks even better now!

Yep, it's for Spotify.
Speaking of which; most apps like Evernote, Spotify, and some Google based apps will be Web-based. Either made through HTML and inside a Chromium wrapper, or loads the web-based site.

I just have to grab metadata from Spotfiy, and be able to get notification pushes from some Google Services.

EDIT:

Also, Zulas is leaning more towards the Web based approach. Much like ChromeOS. Being lightweight but still being able to load win32/win64 apps.

Also wanted to suggest a compact option for the Chromium concept. All that wasted space (-cough- -cough- Windows 8) really triggers me.

I am probably gonna end up just straight up porting Chromium into Zulas. Or just having the full version of Chromium running in a wrapper. Any other apps that are web-based will just use the Cef-Framework.
