I am using an alpine base docker image and have installed sway on it somehow. Though it shows errors but I am able to launch it. I want to know if it is possible to use x11docker with the image I am working on? I want to set up x11docker for vnc access to sway on alpine linux image. Not sure if its possible or not? Any help would be appreciated

In general this should be possible. I once had sway running in an image, too. How do you run your sway image without x11docker yet?

I am not sure about your VNC question. x11docker itself does not use VNC. However, it is possible to access an x11docker container with VNC.
