Create your own web based personal desktop - eyeOS

eyeOS is an Open Source Platform designed to hold a wide variety of Web Applications over it. eyeOS was thought as a new definition of Operating System, where everything inside it can be accessed from everywhere in a Network. All you need to do is to login into your eyeOS server with a normal Internet Browser, and access your personal desktop, with your applications, documents, music, movies... just like you left it last time.

With the base system you can find a full suite of applications bundled, some for private use, like the file manager, a word processor, a music player, calendar, notepad or contacts manager. There are also some groupware applications, such as a group manager, a file sharing application, a group board and many more.

The idea behind eyeOS is not to have an Operating System inside an Operating System, or a browser inside a browser. eyeOS is another step in the digital life era:

Being able to work from everywhere, despite of using a full featured modern computer, a mobile gadget or a completely obsolete pc.

Sharing resources easily between different work centers of a same company, or working from different places and countries in the same projects.

Enjoying always the same applications with the same open formats, and forgetting the usual compatibility problems between Office suites or traditional operating systems.

Being able to continue working if you have to leave your local computer or it just crashes, without loosing data or time in solving its problems: Just log in to your eyeOS from another place and continue working.

2. Download eyeOS in your preferred format (tar.gz or zip).

4. Upload the directory within all of its content to your web server.

6. Now launch the file install.php in your browser and follow the given instructions.
7. If you want to activate the Office Support, please follow the instructions at this wiki page.
8. Now enjoy eyeOS!
