Neon/Containers

KDE neon in Containers

We make container images of KDE neon for quick and easy testing of KDE software without having to reinstall your distro.

Use distrobox to easily run these.

Install distrobox from your distro apt install distrobox or with e.g. wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/89luca89/distrobox/main/install | sudo sh.
