***
|
||
|
||
This Docker Hub repository contains Docker images for headless working.
|
||
|
||
The images are based on the current [Debian 12][docker-debian] and the previous [Debian 11][docker-debian] and include [Xfce][xfce] desktop, [TigerVNC][tigervnc] server and [noVNC][novnc] client.
|
||
The popular web browser [Chromium][chromium] is also included.
|
||
|
||
This [User guide][this-user-guide] describes the images and how to use them.
|
||
|
||
The related [GitHub project][this-github] contains image generators that image users generally don’t need, unless they want to build the images themselves.
|
||
|
||
### Tags
|
||
|
||
The following image tags are regularly built and published on Docker Hub:
|
||
|
||
<!-- markdownlint-disable MD052 -->
|
||
|
||
- `latest` (also as `12`) based on `Debian 12`
|
||
|
||
![badge_latest_created][badge_latest_created]
|
||
[![badge_latest_version-sticker][badge_latest_version-sticker]][link_latest_version-sticker-verbose]
|
||
|
||
- `11` based on `Debian 11`
|
||
|
||
![badge_11_created][badge_11_created]
|
||
[![badge_11_version-sticker][badge_11_version-sticker]][link_11_version-sticker-verbose]
|
||
|
||
<!-- markdownlint-enable MD052 -->
|
||
|
||
**Hint:** Clicking the version sticker badge reveals more information about the particular build.
|
||
|
||
### Features
|
||
|
||
The main features and components of the images in the default configuration are:
|
||
|
||
- lightweight [Xfce][xfce] desktop environment (Debian distribution)
|
||
- [sudo][sudo] support
|
||
- current version of JSON processor [jq][jq]
|
||
- current version of high-performance [TigerVNC][tigervnc] server and client
|
||
- current version of [noVNC][novnc] HTML5 clients (full and lite) (TCP port **6901**)
|
||
- popular text editor [nano][nano] (Debian distribution)
|
||
- lite but advanced graphical editor [mousepad][mousepad] (Debian distribution)
|
||
- current version of [tini][tini] as the entry-point initial process (PID 1)
|
||
- support for overriding environment variables, VNC parameters, user and group (see [User guide][this-user-guide-using-containers])
|
||
- support of **version sticker** (see [User guide][this-user-guide-version-sticker])
|
||
- current version of [Chromium Browser][chromium] open-source web browser (Debian distribution)
|
||

### Remarks
|
||
|
||
There is also a similar sibling image [accetto/ubuntu-vnc-xfce-chromium-g3][accetto-dockerhub-ubuntu-vnc-xfce-chromium-g3] based on [Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and 20.04 LTS][docker-ubuntu].
|
||
|
||
This is the **third generation** (G3) of my headless images.
|
||
The **second generation** (G2) contains the GitHub repository [accetto/xubuntu-vnc-novnc][accetto-github-xubuntu-vnc-novnc].
|
||
The **first generation** (G1) contains the GitHub repository [accetto/ubuntu-vnc-xfce][accetto-github-ubuntu-vnc-xfce].
|
||
|
||
The [Chromium Browser][chromium] in these images runs in the `--no-sandbox` mode.
|
||
You should be aware of the implications.
|
||
The images are intended for testing and development.
|
||
