**Distrobox** is a set of scripts that automates creating GPU-acceleration Linux container environments that seamlessly integrates with the rest of exozyme.
## Usage
To get started, run `distrobox enter`. For more details, take a look at the [Distrobox website](https://distrobox.privatedns.org/). The default container image is a pretty standard Fedora environment, so you can use `dnf` for package management.
## Tips and tricks
### Graphical apps
When running graphical apps, you should first install the `mesa-dri-drivers` GPU drivers in Fedora, or the equivalent Mesa package if you're using a different distro image.
### Running apps inside the container
You can also install apps inside the container and run them from the outside with `distrobox enter -- appname` or integrate them with your desktop by running `distrobox-export` inside the container.
### Running WMs or DEs
You can even install a window manager or desktop environment inside the container and use it in remote desktop with `~/.xinitrc`. See the [window managers](Window-managers) article for more information.
