Wow all these are just amazing. The time and effort - not to mention attention to detail - these individuals have is mind blowing. But this just gets me wondering. Why can't I find any css framework that emulates like windows 10 UI or the current macOS? Is it just the nostalgia aspect that pushes someone to create something like this? Or people just don't find todays OS's emulate-worthy?

Perhaps there are other problems if you try to make the appearance too much like something still in wide use? For example, companies may believe they own trademarks or copyright over the design elements, and be more motivated to enforce them. Also, browser vendors or Google might perceive that such a design is trying to fool users and treat any content using it as malicious. I don't know whether they do this; just speculating.

  The "current" thing certainly has no "nostalgia" feeling, like the DOS or 98 ones. So they are mostly a "can do" technical thing. On the other hand: Lots of modern apps are using web things (like electron etc.) Thus doing web tech using web tech isn't a challenge ...
