**Crafting Authentic Desktop**

I'm focusing on nailing the core visual elements. My current thoughts revolve around replicating the pixel-perfect styling of the Windows 95 desktop, ensuring every element, from the taskbar to the icons, feels genuinely of that era.

**Implementing Classic UI**

I'm deep in the weeds of Windows 95 UI implementation. My focus is on recreating the specific beveled borders and typography, and I'm particularly proud of the taskbar's Start button and system tray details, including the real-time clock with its tooltip.

**Developing Interactive Windows**

My focus has shifted to the dynamic aspects of window interaction. I'm currently implementing draggable title bars with edge containment, and refining the minimize, maximize, and close functionalities. I'm also meticulously styling active and inactive window states, and ensuring correct z-index management for a seamless user experience.

**Developing Desktop Icons**

My current thoughts are on bringing the desktop to life with interactive icons. I'm working on their selection, dragging, and a marquee box for group selection, alongside a context menu for arranging and creating new items.

**Adding Core Applications**

I'm now focusing on populating the desktop with iconic applications. My current thoughts are centered on the functional implementation of Notepad, including its word wrap and file operations, alongside the core drawing tools and color palette for MS Paint. The calculator and Minesweeper are also being developed.

**Implementing Game Mechanics**

My current thoughts are on bringing Minesweeper and Solitaire to life with their iconic gameplay. I'm implementing left-click reveal and right-click flagging for Minesweeper, along with card dragging and auto-moves for Solitaire.

**Enhancing File Navigation**

I'm focused on making "My Computer" feel authentic. My thoughts are on implementing the navigable virtual file system, including the iconic toolbar functions and various view modes for drives and folders.

**Refining Display Settings**

My focus is on the visual customization options. I'm currently implementing the classic monitor preview within Display Properties to showcase desktop background changes and color selections like Teal and Navy.

**Implementing System Dialogs**

My current thoughts are on replicating the iconic system dialogs. I'm implementing the full functionality of the "Shut Down Windows" modal, including its various restart options, and the "It's now safe to turn off your computer" screen. I'm also working on synthesizing the classic Windows 95 startup sound.
