I tried eyeOS long time ago. A plan I never put forward was to use it as a UI to remotely control some device or give access to a few resources of the computer it was running on. Now that tor allows me to give a "universal" name for a machine, maybe I'll think again about doing that.

EyeOS was developed around 15 years ago, when the internet enviroment was on the beginning of web2.0, so things were so different... Now, nearly all of those every day use programs have some sort of web application release or equivalent.

It's something like WindowsCE who tried to move the workings of the desktop to the mobile instead of a fresh interpretation of the platform like Android did at their time.
