>someone literally based an OS on a web browser
What if this became a trend and suddenly all developers started building operating systems based on their software?
Do you think any of them would actually be decent? Like OfficeOS, PhotoshopOS, or WinRAROS?

Windows is already OfficeOS.

No other programs fulfill a full role in the same way. Your examples are alright but you need to do research cite sources when editing docs sometimes, and get resources/brushes/fonts for heavy Photoshop use.
Maybe if Photoshop had a browser for that stuff added it could be an OS?
No single program other than a browser fulfills an entire use case.

Browser-based OS is only a thing because of HTML and JS being surrogate of native GUI and API.
You cannot make anything more retarded than ChromeOS and usable at the same time without ruining commercial value. Of course you can write GUI in Excel but HTML and JS have most required functions of an OS.

It's not an OS on a web browser.
ChromeOS is literally Gentoo.

It works for the browser OS because they supplement other needs through the browser by using websites like Google Docs. Other things like an Office OS would be far less practical.

But seriously, Chrome OS has Android apps now* so it's 99% as functional as Windows 10 for normies.
already done.
