CapsuleCD is an open-source tool that simplifies the creation of custom Linux distributions that run on cloud platforms. It helps in creating secure, self-contained, and minimal Linux images that can be deployed across various cloud providers. In this tutorial, we will go through the steps to install CapsuleCD on Windows 10.
Open the command prompt on your system by pressing Windows + R keys simultaneously.
Type cmd in the "Run" dialog box and press Enter to open the command prompt.
Navigate to the folder where you want to install CapsuleCD. For example, type the following command to navigate to the "Documents" folder.
cd C:\Users\<username>\Documents
git clone https://github.com/analogj/capsulecd.git
cd capsulecd
capsulecd init my_project
This will create a new folder "my_project" in the "capsulecd" directory.
Navigate to the "my_project" directory.
cd my_project
capsulecd build ubuntu
This will build an Ubuntu image using CapsuleCD.
Once the image is built, you can view it under the "output" folder.
You can deploy the CapsuleCD image to cloud platforms like AWS, Google Cloud, etc.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed CapsuleCD on Windows 10. You can now use CapsuleCD to create custom Linux images and deploy them to the cloud of your choice.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
