From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've been using the same windows/dockur setup for a couple years that they outline in the Winapp docs. It uses KVM via a docker cap you give it permission for in the docker compose.
It should work with this Winapp thing, but I haven't gotten much success so far trying to connect it. I've just been RDPing into them but I'd have liked to just pull the relevant windows alone, more like Terminal Service Applications.
Thanks ! I've never heard of that one
I had investigated distrobuilder in repack-windows mode
This sounds like a similar version of that with docker instead of lxc ?
I'm really curious to find some way to have just an application being streamed from one of those, instead of a whole desktop. Like just the application window, resizable like a regular window and using the decorations of the receiving OS
