Firefox container with display over HTTP and/or VNC

This is a Docker container for Firefox⁠.

The GUI of the application is accessed through a modern web browser (no installation or configuration needed on the client side) or via any VNC client.

For simple use cases, this container is a drop-in replacement for jlesage/firefox. It improves on that image in the following ways:

1. Support for amd64 and arm64.
2. The Firefox window will resize to the browser or VNC client.

Mozilla Firefox is a free and open-source web browser developed by Mozilla Foundation and its subsidiary, Mozilla Corporation.

Quick Start

NOTE: The Docker command provided in this quick start is given as an example and parameters should be adjusted to your need.

docker run -d \

    -p 5800:5800 \
    -v /docker/appdata/firefox:/config:rw \
    --shm-size 2g \
    fhriley/firefox
