GUI-Application Support

Open ne0YT opened this issue 5 months ago • 3 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I would love to containerize any Client Windows Application to easily test, deploy, upgrade it in the same way I already distribute Linux GUI Apps. here is no need for a full Desktop but just everything needed to start a Basic GUI-App like Microsoft Office 2024 (just an Example).

Describe the solution you'd like have a base image (best matching would be Windows 11 Enterprise IoT or a reduced version of it) on which I can install and run visible GUI-Apps like Microsoft Office 2024.

Describe alternatives you've considered Running Apps in Docker using Wine, Using VMs.

Additional context Windows is known to be "THE" Client System. To support GUI Client Apps is more interesting than Serverside Apps.

hey there well, do you consider it or will it come "in the future" for sure? or do we know for sure it will not happen the next 3 years?
