Thanks for creating this, it fit perfect for a tiny web site I made[0]. Hits just the right mix of usability and nostalgia and makes me want to use it for more projects.

Off topic, I love your site - it's a perfect homage to a loving family tradition (even if it was only for a couple of vacations). This site is, I think, an example of what a beautiful internet could be (and maybe is, if anyone knows got to find more sites like this-really authentic stories). Now, I hope I'm not being fooled by an AI generated story, but even if I am, I am happy to believe in that illusion.

Edit: After reflecting on this situation, your creation, your art: the css library paired with your story gave me a modern day Norman Rockwell dopamine hit. This has been an absolute experience, bravo to the collaboration!

		I don't have any way to prove it but this was no AI hallucination, a completely true story and human generated site (there is a link to the GitHub on there). I do appreciate your thoughts and I too hope I'm not being fooled by an AI :)

I used 98.css as starting point for the Winamp theme in https://chiptune.app. It was very easy to modify and extend, thanks!

Firefox (Nightly) on Android: tabs don't work: when clicking on a tab, the URL changes, there's a slight jump in content, but the new tab is not selected. Hope this helps

> I no longer work on 98.css and I haven’t in a really long time. My only contribution to the project is monitoring the repo for high-quality pull requests. If I get one, I briefly scan through the author’s profile to make sure they’re not going to mine cryptocurrency on my user’s machines, and then I give them full commit access. “Looks good, go ahead and merge this yourself.”

Very nice!

Thank you so much for your project! I have spent the last few months working on my own retro computing CSS library, but instead inspired by BeOS https://beta.mtechnic.me

PS: while doing research on my project, I found your portfolio site as well. Was shocked to see we had the exact same taste in music, and genuinely made me curious if everyone whose doing retro throwbacks libraries did as well.

I've also once experienced burnout, a book called Pedram Shojai: The Urban Monk has kept it away since. It's practical, not religious. Highly recommend it!

I wrapped many projects in 98.css. And some in Aero and even XP. Thank you!
