Initial Setup

You need a github account for this.

---

GitHub Codespaces

1. First go to https://github.com and make sure you're signed in
2. Fork this repository
3. Click the green code dropdown and click the codespaces tab
4. Click the + icon
Be sure to check your codespace every 20-30 minutes to keep it online!

Now follow the instructions below.

Open the Terminal like this:

Copy and paste this line in the terminal:

docker run --rm -d -p 3443:80 -v $PWD:/workspace:rw -e USER=username -e PASSWORD=password -e RESOLUTION=1366x768 --name ubuntu-novnc4 fredblgr/ubuntu-novnc:20.04

Like this:

Then click on "Open Window" as seen in this image

and enjoy!

For Ubuntu/Linux Beginners

First you want to install everything needed.

Copy this line into Linux's terminal: (it will take a while)

sudo apt-get update -y && sudo apt-get upgrade -y && sudo apt-get install neovim -y && sudo apt-get install terminator -y && sudo apt-get install neofetch -y && sudo apt install ubuntu-software -y && sudo apt-get install gnome-system-monitor -y

That will install Terminator, Neofetch, Neovim, and Ubuntu software tools. All of those are very helpful.

Conlusion:

This VM is not perfect and can have major issues such as running a DE(Desktop Environment) but I think it's still capable of watching youtube videos and getting rid of pesky internet blocks.
