A lot of criticism for not being a "real" OS from a technical perspective - by "OS" the author likely means this is a graphical windowing system and application platform - the part of the OS that the user sees and interacts with. That it is written in nodejs is irrelevant - if this gains traction it would likely be rewritten and optimized for better efficiency.

Also bear in mind this is a single university students design project, he's not trying to be Linus or stallman just yet - Id love to see more people trying to rethink the desktop/workstation OS.

To the author - well done, this is far more than I would have been able to do in uni!
