Webtop

A full Linux desktop environment running in your browser. Based on Alpine Linux with the XFCE desktop, delivered via KasmVNC.

What You Can Do After Deployment

Visit your domain to open the desktop session — no login required by default.

Pre-installed applications: File manager (Thunar), terminal emulator, text editor, and a web browser. The XFCE panel provides a familiar taskbar and application menu.

Install more software: Open a terminal and use apk add to install additional Alpine packages (e.g., apk add libreoffice, apk add gimp).

Persistent storage: The /config volume stores your home directory, desktop settings, and installed packages. Everything persists across container restarts.

Clipboard support: Copy and paste between your local machine and the remote desktop using the KasmVNC sidebar clipboard panel.

Configuration

  • PUID / PGID: Set the user/group ID for file permissions (default 1000)
  • TZ: Set your timezone (e.g., Asia/Taipei, America/New_York)
  • Resolution: Right-click the desktop and adjust display settings, or configure via KasmVNC controls
