YouOS

edit

YouOS provides a platform for developers to create and distribute applications that live in a browser-based “desktop” environment. For end users, YouOS provides one place to be able to do work, manage files and accounts, and collaborate with friends in any place by logging in and out of the YouOS interface. For developers, the platform is open source and Javascript-based, and YouOS provides development tools and storage to launch an application and analytics services to measure application performance.

In many ways the service is similar to the community of developers building Add-Ons and Extensions for Mozilla Firefox with the exception that users can access all of their applications in the browser from any computer via YouOS.

Primary competitors: eyeOS, Desktoptwo, and G.ho.st.
