docker-firefox VS docker-baseimage-gui

Here's a Firefox version. It won't be any better for quality/performance though. https://github.com/jlesage/docker-firefox

I use Apache for my primary web server accessed through 80/443, and I need to set up a reverse proxy to a Docker container. Specifically, I'm trying to set up a reverse proxy for this Firefox image so I can use it on the go.

There was a project on here a while back where you could basically host a Firefox instance on a VPS somewhere and use it over the web (reddit post about it). It was pretty cool. It was for use for things like private browsing anywhere you want. Something like that could push Orb into an area where it would be useful for folks with use-cases like that, and not just people with NAS/servers to manage.

I have setup Firefox docker that I can access from my nginx server. It's just normal https traffic so won't be blocked in a corporate environment. You might want to firewall it off from the rest of your network somehow and definitely add access controls to it. Works surprisingly well though

But let me clarify my question: let's say I'd like to run Firefox on docker and would need to be able to access it remotely. I could use a pre-built image like docker-firefox. But how can I verify that the Firefox that's included in this image has not been tampered with? Is there a way? If not, is there a (simpl-ish) way to download Firefox off mozilla.org and put it in a docker container together with a remote desktop server or a web server? Or would a simple Linux VM be the easier way?

The Firefox image (https://github.com/jlesage/docker-firefox/blob/master/Dockerfile) then installs Firefox, fonts and other tools.

I want to create docker image of Ungoogled Chromium, with a webUI for accessing the browser, similar to QNAP's Browser Station and this docker image of firefox.

I’m also interested in this. As an aside, you’ll be interested in what this person accomplished. They have several apps which implement this framework that was setup. E.g. this one. But there are several others, within their main level repo.

otherwise I recommend this container based setup that would allow your QA and devs to work directly in a navigator, and you to run as many of those as you want on a single host: https://github.com/jlesage/docker-baseimage-gui

VNC + NoVNC. https://github.com/jlesage/docker-baseimage-gui/blob/master/Dockerfile.debian

I found a different docker image that suggests I can run arbitrary GUI applications and a forum post that seems to have got it working on a different NAS system.

The base image (https://github.com/jlesage/docker-baseimage-gui/blob/master/Dockerfile.debian) installs X11 (a very simple window manager), X11VNC (A VNC server) and NoVNC (A web VNC client).

You certainly can, and it's very easy thanks to jlesage's docker-baseimage-gui:
