Virtual Desktop Webtop Developer Edition

Run Visual Studio Code and Google Chrome in Docker in your browser!

This is based on the excellent work from:

https://docs.linuxserver.io/images/docker-webtop

This virtual desktop contains:

• Google Chrome
• Firefox
• Visual Studio Code
• Ansible
• DotNet 7
• Powershell

However you can easily add more applications by editing the Dockerfile.

Build

docker built -t webtop .

Run

docker run --privileged -it -p 3000:3000 --shm-size=4gb webtop

Open in your browser

http://localhost:3000

Persistent data

All data is persisted in the /config folder which is effectively the home directory for that container.

You can persist data by mounting a folder to /config so everything you do in between sessions is persisted using the following example:

docker run --privileged --shm-size=4gb -it -p 80:3000 -v ${PWD}/config:/config webtop
