Lunacy, a re-implementation of the #webOS for Android, just hit Preview 0.7.0. It now supports up Android 17, with improvements for small screens. This release ports basic email, calendar, contacts and Office apps, as well as fixing a bunch of bugs. Check it out on GitHub: github.com/webOSArchive...

Lunacy needs testers! We've got 3 styles of PDK games running on a wide variety of Android devices -- but these aren't the (only) Droids we're looking for! Please install Lunacy 0.6.0 and the 3 games listed, and let me know if you have issues! github.com/webOSArchive...

Lunacy is the Android app that brings the legacy #webOS experience -- and a huge chunk of the Palm/HP webOS apps to modernize devices. It now supports tablets running Android 5 through 17! github.com/webOSArchive...

Lunacy is a #webOS application environment for Android. Like Wine (Wine Is Not an Emulator) it provides the webOS app contract and the UI (and optional keyboard) so webOS apps can run on (old) Android devices. Enyo on tablets only for now, but more soon! www.webosarchive.org/pivot/2026/0...

What's this? This webOS Launcher never had app folders or rename-able tabs! Well it does now... webOS 3.1 is coming!

Palm and HP never got around to adding Bluetooth gamepad support to the TouchPad... so 15 years later, the community did it for them!

Ever wanted to use your old webOS TouchPad as a second screen for your Mac? Now you can -- and it works just as good as an iPad doing the same job! github.com/webOSArchive...

Some Palm Pre games made it to TouchPad with an official release, many didn't exploit the TouchPad's more powerful hardware -- until now. Here's DRIVER being re-mastered for TouchPad, original on bottom, improved on top... Tiger Woods, N.O.V.A and more #webOS re-masters appcatalog.webosarchive.org

During the archeology project that was restoring the #webOS App Catalog, I discovered HP's Pivot magazine was embedded in the code. The community would like to pull together one extra commemorative issue -- if you were involved in Palm/HP webOS and would like to contribute, please PM me!

As #webOS was transitioning from HP's (poor) stewardship to LG's they imagined a modernization of the UI, called Mochi. Its the stuff of legend, since it never came out -- but I got it working here: stacks.webosarchive.org/mochi/
Re-imagined UI for the HP Touchpad, lots of white and gray with soft border transitions, and round images.
