[![](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/linuxserver/docker-templates/master/linuxserver.io/img/Dockerfile-Bionic-green.png)](https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-baseimage-gui/blob/master/Dockerfile)

A custom graphical base image built with:
  * [Ubuntu cloud image][appurl]
  * [S6 overlay](https://github.com/just-containers/s6-overlay)
  * [xrdp](https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xrdp)
  * [xorgxrdp](https://github.com/neutrinolabs/xorgxrdp)
  * [openbox](http://openbox.org/wiki/Main_Page)

## Supported Architectures

Our images support multiple architectures such as `x86-64`, `arm64` and `armhf`. We utilise the docker manifest for multi-platform awareness. More information is available from docker [here](https://github.com/docker/distribution/blob/master/docs/spec/manifest-v2-2.md#manifest-list) and our announcement [here](https://blog.linuxserver.io/2019/02/21/the-lsio-pipeline-project/).

Simply pulling `lsiobase/nginx` should retrieve the correct image for your arch, but you can also pull specific arch images via tags.

The architectures supported by this image are:

| Architecture | Tag |
| :----: | --- |
| x86-64 | amd64-latest |
| arm64 | arm64v8-latest |
| armhf | arm32v7-latest |

## Usage

Here is an example to help you get started creating a graphical container.
