Bubbles: Lightweight Linux working environments with seamless Wayland and Networking integration

Includes and starts a Gnome Console (kgx), but that is just the adjustable default

Quick, yet Full-featured:

  • Starts an instance in just a few seconds
  • Access to a real Debian installation

Persistent, yet Disposable:

  • Run long-living environments: Separate distinct contexts persistently, while not cluttering your host
  • Run quick experiments: Do not break your host, break your Bubble and discard it

Integrated, yet Isolated:

  • Wayland windows are managed on the host compositor, Networking is transparent
  • Using sub-sandboxing plus strong KVM isolation boundary

Powerful, yet Unprivileged:

  • Run containers effortlessly within a Bubble
  • Bubbles runs as sandboxed, least-privilege Flatpak on any modern Linux (Opinionated distributions like Fedora Atomic and NixOS included)

Immutable, yet Mutable:

  • Includes Nix to enable version-controlled, reproducible work environments
  • If Nix is too strict, fall back on Debian's apt or install any other package manager
