How to Install Warpgate on Windows 10

Warpgate is a tool for building and deploying Docker images with minimal configuration. In this tutorial, we'll walk through the steps to install Warpgate on Windows 10.

Prerequisites

Before we begin, make sure you have the following:

• Windows 10
• Docker Desktop installed and running
• Git installed

Installation

1. Open the Command Prompt or PowerShell.
2. Clone the Warpgate repository from GitHub by running:

git clone https://github.com/warp-tech/warpgate

3. Navigate to the Warpgate directory:

cd warpgate

4. Build the Warpgate Docker image:

docker build -t warpgate .

5. Create a new directory to store your Warpgate configuration files:

mkdir C:\path\to\my\config

6. Copy the sample configuration files to your new configuration directory:

cp -r example C:\path\to\my\config

7. Start the Warpgate container:

docker run -d -p 8080:8080 -v C:\path\to\my\config:/app/config --name warpgate warpgate

This command will start the Warpgate container and mount your configuration directory to the container's /app/config directory. The -p option maps port 8080 on the container to port 8080 on your local machine.

You should now be able to access the Warpgate user interface by going to http://localhost:8080 in your web browser.

Congratulations! You have successfully installed Warpgate on Windows 10.

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!
