RyOS is desktop-only

The OS demo relies on a real cursor and keyboard — it's not designed for touch. Visit ryancodes.xyz/os on a desktop to give it a spin.

About

Fourteen years old, four years coding.

I turn ideas into things you can tap, click, and play.

I started writing code when I was ten. Since then I've shipped iOS apps, built websites for clients including Boston Children's Hospital, and won the 2026 Swift Student Challenge. I treat every project like it deserves real design.

  • Building iOS apps with Swift
  • Crafting responsive websites
  • Creating AI solutions with Python
  • Hardware projects on Arduino
  • Designing games in Godot and Unreal
  • Running a tech support firm

Every version, since 2023.

ryancodes.xyz has been rewritten more times than I can count. These are the milestones that mattered.

  1. Alpha

    Late 2023

    The first version of ryancodes.xyz. Where the journey started.

    View Alpha

  2. v1

    Mid 2024

    First serious upgrade. Real layout, real personality, real navigation.

    View v1

  3. v2

    Late 2024

    Added a fullscreen terminal experience. The DNA of every later version.

    View v2

  4. v3

    Mid 2025

    Modern redesign, split into a main site and a separate terminal app.

  5. v3.5

    Late 2025

    Re-skinned the terminal in an old-school amber CRT aesthetic.

    View v3.5

  6. v4

    Late 2025

    Replaced the terminal site with a browser-based OS. Terminal became one of its apps. Still accessible at /os.

    View v4

  7. v5

    2026

    Rebuilt from scratch in Next.js with a real design system. The version you're looking at.

Heads up: archived versions can be janky on mobile and some links inside them may be broken. There have been 300+ smaller updates along the way; the list above is just the highlights.
