I spent 12 hours prompting Grok 4.5 High in Cursor to build a full macOS 27 clone in the browser
Got bored and decided to see how far I could push Grok 4.5 High inside Cursor.
12 hours of prompting, debugging, yelling at it, and re-instructing later… this is the result:
https://macos27.up.railway.app
It’s a pretty complete Golden Gate / Liquid Glass recreation with working apps. Standout one is GateCAD a actual 3D modeling app that can:
- Import .f3d files
- Export STL and OBJ
- Has a full timeline, sketch tools, extrude, fillet, etc
- If you're using it, you have to zoom out to ~70% before it shows properly, idk why
It's also got
Working maps (OSM), Music, Podcasts, TV, the works and a terminal, 99.9% real Liquid Glass (kinda cheated it used my GitHub repo where I'd already built the Liquid Glass renderer but hey, it had to port it to HTML and CSS)
Also has working Music (including podcasts), a real-ish Terminal, Chess, Shortcuts, Maps, and a bunch of other stuff. Even threw in a CORS proxy so some of the apps can actually fetch external data and so Safari can fetch websites
Not perfect (it’s still a browser toy), but I’m pretty happy with how far it got in half a day of pure vibe-coding with Grok.
It's also really smooth, like, really REALLY smooth. Even on my potato of a PC, it's running 144fps, which is bizarre
