MacOS 8 app lets you download and install macOS 8 on your Mac, Windows, or Linux PC. There are even some apps and games you can play.
The app was developed by Felix Rieseberg who has previously transformed Windows 95 into an app back in 2018.

This time, Rieseberg turned an entire 1991 Macintosh Quadra with Mac OS 8.1 into a single app that can be downloaded and installed on macOS, Windows, or Linux. It includes several apps and games, thanks to an old MacWorld demo CD from 1997: classic games like Duke Nukem 3D, Civilization II, Dungeons & Dragons, Namely, Oregon Trail, Alley 19 Bowling, and Damage Incorporated running, but also apps including Photoshop 3, Premiere 4, Illustrator 5.5, StuffIt Expander, and Apple’s Web Page Construction Kit.
According to The Verge, the macintosh.js app is written entirely in JavaScript, and uses a virtual machine to emulate a Macintosh Quadra 900 with the Motorola CPU Apple used before its transition to IBM’s PowerPC chips.
Internet Explorer and Netscape are preinstalled. But “you wouldn’t be able to open even Google” Rieseberg says.
The app can be downloaded from GitHub.
