Each guide walks through one task. How the underlying pieces work is in Concepts; exact option names and defaults are in Reference.
- Running examples: nine of the Python examples and what each one shows.
- Mounting volumes: share host directories with a box for input and output.
- Configuring networking: internet access and port forwarding through gvproxy.
- Resource limits and tuning: size CPU, memory, and disk for a workload.
- Image registry configuration: pull images from private or mirrored registries.
- Guest SSH control: turn the in-guest SSH server on and off.
- Docker inside a Box: run Docker Engine and Compose in a privileged guest.
- AI agent integration: run agent-generated code safely, with timeouts and file transfer.
- Integration examples: expose BoxLite through a web service.
- Deployment patterns: a production checklist and common deployment shapes.
- Debugging: enable debug logging and inspect box state.
- Troubleshooting: causes and fixes for common errors.
These features are release candidates: disabled by default and outside BoxLite's compatibility guarantees.
- Custom kernel: boot a box with your own kernel and initramfs.
- Nested virtualization: let a workload inside a box start its own hardware-accelerated VMs.
