patterns/x11vnc repository overview

⁠docker-x11vnc

This is an X11 VNC base image because I kept repeating these steps for multiple Docker images. It uses the window manager from Suckless Tools.

⁠Quickstart

1. Install Docker⁠
2. Git clone the src⁠
3. From the cloned directory, build

You can assign the VNC password for the image:

$ docker build --build-arg VNC_PASSWORD=abc123 -t xvnc .
$ docker run -it --rm -p 8088:5900 xvnc

• Then launch your VNC viewer at vnc://127.0.0.1:8088
• Type the VNC_PASSWORD when prompted.
• From inside the container, it's shift-alt-enter to launch a terminal.
