I'm the creator of the site, thanks for the submission. This is an in-progress port of the SheepShaver emulator to WebAssembly/Emscripten, https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac/issues/34 is tracking the remaining work. If you're interested in running older Mac software in the browser, the BasiliskII-based sites at https://system7.app/ and https://macos8.app/ may be better bets. They will boot faster and have fewer compatibility issues (especially System 7). The main thing that Mac OS 9/SheepShaver brings is PowerPC support. There is also a variant of System 7 for PowerPC with more esoteric mid-90s Apple projects like OpenDoc and QuickDraw GX installed available at https://system7.app/?domain=system7-ppc.app.

If you open the developer console, it is revealed that the experience is provided by SheepShaver, a traditional desktop emulator (packaged presumably with Emscripten) running in the browser. :) The integration portions are pretty nice, no doubt. Edit: https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac#building-the-emulator... reveals that it is indeed built using Emscripten.

This seems to work OK for me. Any chance a modifier is stuck down (try pressing command, option and shift to reset their state). If this still happens, can you file a bug at https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac/issues/new?

git clone https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac.git Or just use Basilisk.

Recently I fell into a wormhole, or rather time sink, playing with a Gameboy emulator that runs in the browser. https://github.com/binji/binjgb There's something so satisfying about a virtual machine that fits in a ~106K WASM file, that can play hundreds of classic games like Teris and Super Mario Bros (via ROM collections on Internet Archive). I don't usually play games, but this emulator is so cute and fun, I keep coming back to waste time on it. Actually, PICO-8 was the last time I felt this kind of child-like joy about a computer. I get a similar feeling from this Infinite Mac project. https://github.com/mihaip/infinite-mac It's so pleasing to see a running Macintosh in the browser. That interface feels like an old friend. The underlying VM, BasiliskII, is a little less than 1MB WASM file. Amazing! From the entertaining article, I lea
