In Show HN: React95 – A React components library recreating the look of Windows 95
It looks like this project has been abandoned for over a year. There's quite a few rough edges that stand out pretty distinctly: some buttons have a pressed state, others don't. Some controls have transitions or animations, while others which I'd expect to have transitions do not. Spacing and margins seem off (even the tiles on the Examples page). Some of the styles on the Layout documentation are broken due to specificity issues.
