BoxBuddy

An unofficial GUI for managing your Distroboxes. Written with GTK4 + Libadwaita.

Note that this does not come with Podman or Distrobox, those will need to be installed on the host.

Installing

Flatpak

Note: The Flatpak does not have filesystem access by default, so some features are disabled. Please see the documentation for details.

Local Binary

• Download and unzip the release
• Execute ./install.sh

Documentation

Documentation lives at the GitHub Pages site.

Contributing

Please see the dedicated Dev Documentation and Translator Documentation.

Help Wanted

Help would be greatly appreciated in these areas:

• Translations - Currently implemented: EN, DE, UK, RU, IT, ES, pt_BR. Any other translations appreciated!

Issues / Feature Requests

Feature requests are welcome! Please check the roadmap to see if a feature is already planned.

When filing issues, please keep in mind that BoxBuddy is just a GUI, and I am not a developer of Distrobox itself. Any issues with created boxes are probably better logged upstream.
