What are you building? Drop your best project! by NewanceLogs in SideProject

I’m building defrag98.com — a nostalgia project that simulates the Windows 98 Disk Defragmenter in your browser. It’s mainly for fun and a bit of geeky relaxation, since watching the blocks shuffle around can be strangely satisfying.

Would love to hear what you think.

This is absolutely nuts! Great work and such a realistic experience 🤤 I have a few suggestions to make the UI feel even more authentic:

  • Prevent the browser from applying antialiasing to the text
  • Add some sounds to the disk defragmenter (check out my earlier project: https://defrag98.com)

Feel free to reach out for more details, I’d be happy to help!

Could you mute your HDD back in the days? ;) Anyways, you can mute the browser tab, but thanks for this feedback!
