It's even weirder than that: mention of the shell GUI is just the intro, later they proceed with implementing a facsimile of the Windows NT kernel in... TypeScript. Even for purely self-educational purposes, this pairing seems to be very counterproductive.

webOS is a registered trademark of LG Electronics Inc's. https://trademarks.justia.com/882/52/webos-88252320.html

The article's author has no claim to it and should remove the references to it. HN post title should be updated too.
