Not a very good name, is it?

Ever wanted to containerize your wine applications and access them via a web browser? No? Neither did I!

This container runs:

  • Xvfb - X11 in a virtual framebuffer
  • x11vnc - A VNC server that scrapes the above X11 server
  • noNVC - A HTML5 canvas vnc viewer
  • Fluxbox - a small window manager
  • Explorer.exe - to demo that it works

This is a trusted build on the Docker Hub.

Run It

docker run --rm -p 8080:8080 solarkennedy/wine-x11-novnc-docker
xdg-open http://localhost:8080

In your web browser you should see the default application, explorer.exe:

Modifying

This is a base image. You should fork or use this base image to run your own wine programs?

Issues

  • Wine could be optimized a bit
  • Fluxbox could be skinned or reduced
