Want you try new Operating system?

How?

DistroHopper

Quickly download, create and run VM of any(TODO) operating system.

Licensed under AGPL3

Still Testing version!

quickly create and run VMs

As a base excellent quickemu

I added:

GUI

using yad

.Desktop file generator

It will simple generate .desktop files for every supported VM in quickemu. So you can copy it anywhere...

And I mean every supported distro.

you can download new distro with few clicks of a mouse

You need to run quickgui just for update supported distros.

Simple GUI using yad --notebook

See it in action on youtube...

or command line?...

TUI

using fzf

Why I creating this?

Because I wanna learn

• Linux

• Bash

• yad

• project management

• contribute to open source

Because I wanna play with Quickemu

And easily add new distro to it
