## quickemu Introduction
|
||||
|
||||
Quickly create and run highly optimised desktop virtual machines for
|
||||
Linux, macOS and Windows; with just two commands. You decide what
|
||||
operating system you want to run and Quickemu will figure out the best
|
||||
way to do it for you. For example:
|
||||
|
||||
``` bash
|
||||
quickget ubuntu-mate 22.04
|
||||
quickemu --vm ubuntu-mate-22.04.conf
|
||||
```
|
||||
Linux, macOS and Windows; with different user interfaces to choose from.
