Distrobox is the single piece of software that completely changed the way I work. If you’ve hear of or used Vagrant and thought it was a great idea but implemented in a really heavy handed manner, then Distrobox is exactly what you’ve been looking for.
Within a month Distrobox became my primary dev environment and that hasn’t changed for over a year. In this post I hope to share how I use Distrobox and give you some tips for making the experience even better.
Distrobox was unreliable, so I switched to using my own Podman scripts. Later, I found Bubblewrap’s chroot setup simpler and more effective.
Try bubblewrap with Ansible, you won’t look back.
