	tl;dr: 98.css is a JavaScript-free CSS library that styles semantic HTML to recreate the Windows 98 UI, compatible with any frontend framework. It provides classes for building authentic-looking components like buttons, checkboxes, title bars, tree views, tabs, progress indicators, and full windows, with accessibility as a primary goal. Install via npm or import from unpkg; MIT licensed.
	HN Discussion: ↑Author sharing personal significance of the project as burnout recovery ↑Nostalgia for old UI patterns like grayed-out buttons and multi-row tabs being superior to modern flat design ↑Users showcasing their own projects built with or inspired by 98.css ~Nitpicking minor inaccuracies in the recreation (font rendering, tab behavior) ↑Criticism of modern UI design trends as unnecessary change for change's sake
