README.md

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.

Main Menu

Installing

Flatpak

Download on Flathub

Local Binary

  • Visit the releases section
  • Download and unzip the release
  • Execute ./install.sh

Developing

Boxbuddy is written with Rust using Gtk4 and Libadwaita.

Building Flatpak

  • Install flatpak-builder
  • ./singlefile.sh
  • flatpak install --user boxbuddy.flatpak

Running Locally

  • Install gtk4 development packages - check your distro for something like gtk4-devel or gtk-dev, etc.
  • Install rustup
  • Use the standard cargo run / cargo build workflow

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.
