GlacierOS

GlacierOS's only official open source repo: klashdevelopment/GlacierOS

Hosting

You're gonna want to host glacier-server. (npm install first obv) That repo includes the actual glacier hostable code and files.

Fly.io Enter glacier-server using cd and deploy using fly launch, copying the settings.

Replit although heavily unsupported, deploy on repl and use npm start. Glacier just doesnt run on repl. Womp womp...

Other services Glacier server can be deployed on any service - simply host glacier-server however you need to as a NodeJS project.

Modifying

glacier-client contains the pure UI and featureset of Glacier in next.js. Feel free to modify and make PRs!

To add an app/game, modify applist.json using the schema below:

{
  "name": "",
  "unblock":false,
  "image": "",
  "description": "",
  "url": "",
  "category": ""
}

Name: Window name, app name, etc. Unblock: FALSE will disable all anti-censorship methods. Image: URL to image for app icon. Square (1:1) please Description: 1-2 sentence description. Doesn't need to be too long. Url: Link to the actual content website. Category: Comma-seperated list of categories. MUST have "Apps", "Games", "VMS", "VMP", or "Devtools" to show in Store.

Run it using npm run dev and build using the guide below.

Building

1. Head into glacier-client
2. Run npm run build
3. To put into glacier-server, first copy all files (override) from glacier-client/out into glacier-server/client.
4. In the root directory, run node insert-snippets.js.

If that doesnt work: 4. Open up client/index.html and client/Scripts.md. 5. In scripts.md, copy the body tags. 6. Find the first </body> inside of index.html and paste the scripts before it. 7. Do the same for the </head> and head scripts.
