Kasm - Virtual Desktop / Browser Isolation

@plusone-nick What type of infrastructure you have? On site or in cloud?

[adison]

personally, i think @girish should implement kasm workspaces noticing there's a docker container for it.

[adison]

come on discourse, improve your screen reader compatibility

[plusone-nick]

@DualOSWinWiz both

[timconsidine]

@plusone-nick do you a repo for Kam on Cloudron that you can share ?

[plusone-nick]

@timconsidine nope sorry never dug into it too much

[savity]

this really would be awesome since it is getting more and more attention allready a docker container

[savity]

Anything here regarding kasm this would be really awesome

[plusone-nick]

@savity As much as i would love to see this or even something similar on Cloudron I don't believe there is any current development happening so i would not get hopes up. Going to have to find another implementation solution for this ONE for now...

I use Kasm and I like it, but I would describe it as a “slippery slope”.
It can be a resource hog if you have multiple workspaces running. Maybe if it’s just one solo user running only one workspace at a time, it’s viable from resources point of view on a Cloudron host.
But if you have one user running multiple workspaces or multiple users, it quickly merits being on its own VPS (which is how I have deployed it).
So yes, concept Kasm on Cloudron is appealing, in practice better to deploy separately, so packaging work for Cloudron maybe not realistic application of effort.

Yes, I would see the resource usage as a critical topic here. I thing it is easier to run https://forum.cloudron.io/topic/7380/webtop-dockerised-linux-desktop-in-a-browser?_=1718484389586 in a container and then add cloudron proxy auth infront of it. webop uses the same project (kasmvnc) for the rendering in the browser. this is then essentially single user, but you can repeat the container part multiple times for different users.
