There needs to be a centralized place for official and custom BOOTCONFIG files, as part of keeping this project clean and organized. It should be stored in the home repository (/seanpm2001/WacOS/)

Hi! I have implemented the classic system one UI a long time ago in pure HTML and CSS:
http://composed.nu/systemone/
As said on the page, use it however you want, but mention the source if you do.
The manpages on this project were added yesterday (2022, Thursday, January 13th) and are a copy and paste of the existing documentation from the README.md file, which already didn't contain in-depth enough information for a manual. Along with this, the syntax of the ROFF files is not accurate, and I don't have a way of testing it.
The manpages need improvement.

GitHub user 
Devos50 made massive contributions to iOS virtualization by creating a functional iPhoneOS 1 virtual machine. I feel that this project should benefit from this, as there is no functional WhyPhoneOS system yet. This will be just one of many tools/software LIBraries that WacOS will use.

I created a new component of the system today, which is a SWAP file creator. It isn't functional yet, but I have already run into a design problem:
Modern SWAP files are very large. For reference, my laptops SWAP file is 2 gigabytes (2 trillion bytes) the SWAP file maker I made is designed to take up less memory in its source code, but build a SWAP file byte by byte, running a command for every blank byte added to the SWAP file located at SWAPFILE.bin (which I will change to .swp in the future) I can't just upload a SWAP file to GitHub, as 1. It would be too large and 2. Not every SWAP file for every installation is the same size.
This is a fragment of the 3rd variation of the C code for reference. It is not functional yet and is mostly pseudocode (you might need to view the full file to get all the context)
// Create a custom size SWAP file
int customSWAP(void) {
scanf.csw("Please specify the size of the SWAP file in bytes. Make sure the SWAP file is less than 1/4 of your RAM size\n");
if (csw / 4 > ramSize) {
printf("The specified size is too large\n");
break;
} else {
x = int(0)
while (x != csw) {
file.append(0) to file("/SWAPFILE.bin");
x == x + 1;
if response == true {
response == false;
} else if response == false {
response == true;
}
if (x == csw) {
printf("A " + int(csw) + " byte SWAP file has been created!\n");
break;
}
}
}The full source code can be viewed here or here
I have been told by family members that this sounds like a virus. I don't know enough about it to agree, but I feel like doing this could damage/destroy a storage device easily. I wonder if there is a better way of doing this. Does anyone know?

The project Wiki is a key part of the project and hasn't been updated in over a month. There are several things that need to be written about, including:
Apple Typography
Apple Hardware
Also, articles need to be updated. There are too many to list here.
I am also looking for public collaborators, more info can be found here.
The NEWS file was added today, but is missing data for some of 2022, all of 2021 and all of 2020. The file needs to be updated and maintained.

There are some issues related to the web demo I received. I am asking the community for help on how to fix them.
The demo can be found at BaSYS/1/UI_Demo/Web/Peterhil/
The credits dialog box covers the display when going into full screen mode. I want to try to put it lower into the page, as I can't just remove it (that would be plagiarism)
The Apple Logo Unicode character may be unsupported on your system (for me, on Ubuntu 20.04, it shows up as a broken character, as my system does not have good Unicode support) I won't replace it with an Emoji, as it would ruin the project (because it wouldn't match, and because the apple emoji is different on most systems)
The menu and other graphics/buttons are currently just a still image, and can't be used. The only functional part is the credits dialog, and the finder bar (although none of the options work)
It is that time of year where new Apple operating systems are in beta, and soon to be released. This years lineup includes:
New subsystem equivalents for WacOS will need to be created as:
I will eventually get to this when I have the time.

If you know of a similar project and want to see it added to the related projects file please comment it below. A review will be done, and it may get added.
Please note the following requirements:
CTRL / COMMAND + F and then search for the name of the project. Do this both in this issue thread, and in the RELATED-PROJECTS.md file)Edit1: Fixed link and added edit notice.
I am looking for trusted maintainers for this projects Wiki. The project Wiki aims to document the complete history of Apple, along with how it reflects onto this project.
Developers should be able to know:
Markdown
Internet Safety
How to cite sources
The English language (at a literate level, while being able to write in terms that the general public can understand (Wikipedia's rules are an example))
Professional Internet etiquette
Intermediate or higher knowledge of the Apple company, its products, and its history
Intermediate or higher knowledge of the WacOS project and its goals
The only problem I currently see with maintenance is that I currently don't entirely trust the Wiki system. I fear that an account may be hijacked, and the Wiki could then be vandalized with slurs and other vandalism, including blanking the page.
Is the Wiki safe to be publicly edited by contributors?
Am I responsible for any hateful/rule breaking content posted by other contributors?
If you are a contributor on this project, you will be credited in this thread.
Within the project documentation, I added links to whyWatchOS 1 to 10 today. I didn't notice until version 9 that I had been entering them incorrectly, and decided to keep going with the bad copies, and report it later. The exact issue is that local links are written as /whyWatchOS/10/ when they should be /WhyWatchOS/10/ due to inconsistency with file naming. I don't have the time to fix this, so I am putting it out as an extra chore for if I have the time, or for whoever can't stand the inconsistency.
I may upload a separate /whyWatchOS/ directory, and deprecate the /WhyWatchOS/ directory to fix the issue.
