The Headless Deskman

Public Unreviewed

by barrett-land

A browser desktop for a headless Adom container. Runs Xvfb+fluxbox+x11vnc+noVNC inside the container and maps a *.adom.cloud port so any browser (or a Hydrogen webview tab) shows the container's GUI — no SSH tunnel, no local viewer. The container hosts the page itself. (Formerly Headview.)
