Description:
Linux containers have made it reasonably easy to develop, distribute, and deploy server applications along with all the distribution dependencies that they
need. For example, anyone can deploy and run a Debian-based PostgreSQL container on a FedoraLinux host. Distrobox is a project that is designed to bring the cross-distribution compatibility to the desktop and allow users to mix-and-match Linux distributions without fussing with dual-booting, virtual machines, or multiple computers. It is an ideal way to install
additional software on image-based systems, such as Fedora's Atomic Desktops or Bazzite , and also
provides a convenient way to move a development environment or
favorite applications to a new system.
